To the best of my knowledge it is NOT codominant, but rather a simple autosomal recessive disorder. It may also be considered intermediate inheritance (a.k.a. incomplete dominance or overdominance) as heterozygotes are to an extent deficient in normal haemoglobin A production, only they usually do not show any clinical symptoms (and are protected from malaria as a bonus).

Is sickle cell anemia a type of poikilocytosis?
Yes, sickle cell anemia is a type of poikilocytosis, which is a condition characterized by the presence of abnormally shaped red blood cells in the bloodstream. In sickle cell anemia, the red blood cells are crescent or sickle-shaped due to a genetic mutation in the hemoglobin protein.
What genetic disorder results in abnormally shaped blood?
Spherocytosis
Is sickle cell anemia considered a codominant trait in genetic inheritance?

What is the inheritance of the sickle cell anemia?
autosomal recessive
What is the mode of inheritance for sickle-cell anemia?
autosomal recessive
Compare the inheritance of Huntingtons disease with the inheritance of sickle cell anemia?
Huntingtons disease is Autosomal dominant, i.e. a 50% chance of inheritance if one parent has the gene. Where as sickle cell anemia is autosomal recessive. This gives a 25% chance of inheritance if both parents are carriers.

Is sickle cell anemia recessive or dominant?
Sickle cell anemia is an autosomal recessive disease. Carriers have sickle cell trait, which confers resistance to malaria.
