A separate gene, which is not linked to the agouti gene, can result in either a dominant black pigment or a recessive brown pigment (B = black; b = brown). What would be the expected frequency of agouti brown offspring in the litter? ... The probability of A_offspring is 3/4, and the probability of bb offspring is 1/4.
