When Heredity Does Not Follow Mendelian Rules
Complex Patterns of Heredity Incomplete Dominance RR R' RR RR Neither phenotypes is completely dominant R = Red R' = White RR' = Pink RR = Red R'R' = White
Incomplete Dominance R R R' R’ R R RR R' Neither phenotypes is completely dominant R = Red R' = White RR = Red R'R' = White RR' = Pink
Codominance Both possible phenotypes can be expressed R R R' R’ R R RR R' Both phenotypes are expressed in heterozygotes R = Red R' = White RR = Red R'R' = White RR' = Spotted Striped Striped Checkered Checkered Etc. Etc.
