What have you tried so far?

---------- Post updated at 05:24 ---------- Previous update was at 04:06 ----------

Funny, i just looked at the output (ignoring the BP8 as i see now - sorry), and got this:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env bash
### Expected output 
#Gene1   BP1   3
#Gene2   BP3   4
#Gene3   BP7   2   BP8   2
### from input.txt

for n in 1 2 3
do
	total_genes="$(grep Gene$n input.txt)"
	first_gene=$(echo "$total_genes"|head -n 1)
	first_occourences=$(echo "$total_genes" | grep "$first_gene" | wc -l )
	printf "%s\t%s\n" \
		"$first_gene" \
		"$first_occourences"
done

Code:
Gene1	 BP1	3
Gene2	 BP3	4
Gene3	 BP7	2

Hope this helps to get you started.
