Complete Dominance: Where in the dominant gene completely masks the effect of the resesive gen in heterozygous conditions. Ex. Tt or Rr. Incomplete Dominance: When 2 or more alleles influence a phenotype. Ex. Flowers. Codominance: When both alleles for a gene are expressed in heterozygous offspring. Ex. Bloodtype.

Complete dominance is what you see in Mendelian genetics; the pea plants with either the purple of white flowers, or either tall of short. Incomplete dominance is simply when no allele is dominant over the other, the best example for this are snapdragons. If a white snapdragon and a red snapdragon are cross-pollinated the resulting F1 generation would be pink (because the red allele is not dominant over the white allele). Remember though that the F2 generation will not be pink, you will see the typical 1:2:1 phenotype split; as two snapdragons with RW genotypes will have the following possible offspring: RR (25%,red), RW (50%, pink), WW (25%, white.

Dominance is a form of inheritance in which only one allele of a gene expresses itself in a heterozygous condition whereas incomplete dominance is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely dominant over the other allele. This results in a combined phenotype.

When both alleles are expressed in an offspring this is called?

It is called incomplete dominance.


In what both alleles are expressed in offspring?

Incomplete Dominance


What is it called when the presence of two different alleles results in intermediate phenotype?

Is an inheritance pattern in which neither allele for a trait dominates the other?

Incomplete Dominance


If an offspring shows a phenotype that is intermediate between the phenotypes of the parents what is this type of inheritance?

Incomplete dominance can create offspring that display a trait not identical to either parent but intermediate to the two. One example of incomplete dominance is a red flower and a white flower crossbreed to form a pink flower.
