When two heterozygous organisms are mated, approximately 75% of these organisms should display the trait if it is dominant. 25% would display the recessive gene. If these numbers are very far off, chances are the gene you were testing was not a dominant trait.

What is the difference between epistasis and dominance in genetic inheritance?

Epistasis occurs when one gene masks the expression of another gene, while dominance is when one allele of a gene is expressed over another allele. In epistasis, the interaction between genes affects the phenotype, while in dominance, one allele is dominant and determines the phenotype.


What is it called in situations in which one allele for a gene is not completely dominant over another allele for that gene?

What is the difference between complete dominance and incomplete dominance?

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.

Why gene products result in different levels of dominance for different traits?

Gene products, such as proteins, can exhibit varying levels of dominance due to differences in their functional effects on the phenotype. Some alleles may produce proteins that are fully functional, partially functional, or non-functional, leading to a range of phenotypic expressions. Additionally, interactions between gene products, epistasis, and environmental factors can further influence dominance relationships. Consequently, the complexity of gene interactions and their effects on traits can result in different levels of dominance across various traits.
