co-dominance
A trait that exhibits incomplete dominance, is one in which the heterozygous offspring will have a phenotype that is a blend between the two parent organisms. An example of this is when a homozygous red sweet pea flower crossed with a homozygous white sweet pea flower, their offspring will be heterozygous and have the pink phenotype, rather than either red or white.

Incomplete Dominance - Thia, soy una latina
During incomplete dominance both the allelic genes in a chromosome in dominant condition inherit a character in the off-springs. When only one gene out of the allelic pair is dominant and its counterpart is recessive, we get incomplete expression. For example a pea plant with red flowers is crossed with another plant having white flowers, the f1 plants are pink flowered. On selfing of f1 plants we get f2 progeny in the ratio of 1 red: 2 pink : 1 white flowered plants. These pink flowered plants show incomplete dominance.
There are a number of different family patterns based on many different categories of information. Some families will have all girl offspring for example.
incomplete dominance
This type of inheritance represents alleles at the same locus where one is recessive to the other. The dominant phenotype occurs in all heterozygous offspring as well as the homozygous dominant offspring. This yields a 3:1 phenotype and a 1:2:1 genotype.
Types of dominance, multiple alleles, sex linked inheritance, polygenic inheritance and maternal inheritance.
It is an exception to Mendel's Laws of Inheritance and follows a pattern of co-dominance.
