How to solve genetics problems

Incomplete dominance is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely expressed over its paired allele. This results in a third phenotype in which the expressed physical trait is a combination of the phenotypes of both alleles. Unlike in complete dominance inheritance, one allele does not dominate or mask the other allele. Incomplete dominance occurs in the polygenic inheritance of traits such as eye color and skin color. Incomplete Dominance vs Co-dominance Incomplete genetic dominance is similar to, but different from co-dominance. In co-dominance, an additional phenotype is produced, however, both alleles are expressed completely. Co-dominance is exemplified in AB blood type inheritance. #incompleteDominance #Allele #phenotypes #polygenic #codominance
