1 Incomplete Dominance and Codominance

2 Incomplete Dominance Incomplete dominance is an interaction between two alleles that are expressed more or less equally, and the heterozygote is different from either homozygous. Example: In cattle, the alleles for red coat color and for white coat color interact to produce an intermediate coat color called roan

5 Codominance: Codominance is similar to incomplete dominance in that there is no dominant allele. However, the phenotypic expression is quite different. If two alleles have a codominance relationships, in the heterozygote both alleles will be completely expressed.

6 ABO blood types, the IAIB heterozygote expresses both alleles
Codominance Codominance occurs when the heterozygote expresses the phenotype of both homozygote. Example: ABO blood types, the IAIB heterozygote expresses both alleles Sickle cell anemia in heterozygous condition
