The formation of band patterns in odd-odd nuclei is investigated in the SU(3) limit of the interacting boson-fermion-fermion model. For two holes (particles) coupled to the SU(3) prolate (oblate) core, we study the algebraic {ital K}-representation basis which is the analog of the strong-coupling basis of the geometrical model. In the case of a particle and a hole coupled to the SU(3) core, we derive a new algebraic basis which, in the limit of the large boson number, becomes equivalent to the semi-decoupling basis of the particle-rotor model. For a simple demonstration case which was proposed in the first part of this work, the interacting boson-fermion-fermion-model Hamiltonian is explicitly diagonalized in these algebraic bases and all bands, which derive their parentage from the (2{ital N},0) representation of the SU(3) boson core, are identified. Electromagnetic properties of low-lying bands are calculated and compared to the predictions of the geometrical model of Bohr and Mottelson. We also present an illustrative calculation for the realistic case ({pi}{ital h})(11/2,{nu}{ital i} 13/2) and identify several low-lying bands.
