Incomplete dominance
Incomplete dominance is typically denoted with a subscript to indicate the blending of traits in heterozygous individuals.
A pattern of inheritance that the blending hypothesis fails to explain is incomplete dominance, where the heterozygous phenotype is intermediate between the two homozygous phenotypes. This contradicts the blending hypothesis, which suggests that the traits of the parents are mixed together in the offspring. In incomplete dominance, the traits remain distinct in the offspring.
Incomplete Dominance
Incomplete dominance occurs when neither copy of an allele completely masks the expression of the other, resulting in a blending of the phenotypes associated with each allele. This leads to an intermediate phenotype that is a mix of the two allele's traits.

This phenomenon is known as incomplete dominance, where neither allele is dominant over the other and a blending of traits is observed in the heterozygous genotype. This results in an intermediate phenotype that is a mix of the two homozygous phenotypes.

Incomplete dominance occurs when neither allele is completely dominant over the other, resulting in a blending of traits in the offspring. Codominance, on the other hand, occurs when both alleles are expressed fully in the offspring, leading to the presence of both traits simultaneously. In terms of genetic inheritance patterns, incomplete dominance shows a blending of traits, while codominance shows the presence of both traits without blending.
The three types of dominance are complete dominance, incomplete dominance, and codominance. In complete dominance, one allele is fully expressed over another. In incomplete dominance, neither allele is completely dominant, resulting in a blending of traits. In codominance, both alleles are expressed equally, leading to a distinct phenotype that shows features of both alleles.
When the phenotype (trait) is a mixture of what the different alleles code for, it is known as incomplete dominance. For example: - if B codes for black fur, and b codes for white fur - incomplete dominance would result in grey fur (a mix of black and white) for a rabbit with Bb alleles. - if R codes for red flowers, and r codes for white flowers - incomplete dominance would result in pink flowers for a plant with Rr alleles.
