Incomplete Dominance Codominance
Mendel’s experiments only looked at traits in which only one of the alleles is expressed COMPLETE DOMINANCE
P p F1 x F1 P P P P p Second Generation (F2) P p p pp Homozygous dominant = purple Homozygous recessive = white Heterozygous = lavender Incomplete Dominance
Mendel’s experiments only looked at traits in which only one of the alleles is expressed COMPLETE DOMINANCE a situation where neither allele dominates the other and both exercise an influence on the individual; results in partial expression of both traits. Incomplete dominance:

Mendel’s experiments only looked at traits in which only one of the alleles is expressed COMPLETE DOMINANCE a situation where neither allele dominates the other and both exercise an influence on the individual; results in partial expression of both traits. Incomplete dominance: Codominance: A situation where both alleles are expressed fully to produce offspring with a third phenotype
