The term applied to the trait that is expressed in regardless of the second allele is dominant. In contrast, the term recessive refers to a trait that is expressed when the second allele is identical.

What is the dominance -recessive interaction of an allele pair?

This depends on the type of dominance relationship. You can have true dominance, in which case if the allele pair contains a dominant allele, the dominant trait will be expressed. In this case the recessive trait will only be exhibited if both alleles are recessive. A second case is that of codominance. In this case, two alleles are codominant, so if you have one of each, both traits will be expressed. A third case is that of incomplete dominance. In this case, if you have a dominant and a recessive allele, you will get a trait which is a mixture of both traits. A good example is when you breed a red flower and a blue flower and get a purple flower as progeny. Other things, like dominance series, also exist. However this information should answer your original question.


Is when one allele completely masks another?

when one allele is completely dominant over another allele, then it masks the expression of the second allele so the allele that masks the effect is called dominant allele and the allele whos effect is masked is called recessive allele
