Alleles E and e are hypostatic to rr as their expression is suppressed by the presence of 2 copies of r. Thus, when the genetype rr is present, no R allele is present so no red pigment is produced. Also the rr genotype will suppress the expression of E allele (if present) resulting in no purple pigment.
