Incomplete Dominance, Codominance and Multiple

Alleles

INCOMPLETE DOMINANCEIncomplete Dominance- Pattern of gene

expression in which the phenotype of a heterozygous individual is intermediate between those of the parents.

• Cases in which one allele is not completely dominant over another.

Example: Snapdragonsand Carnations

Incomplete Dominance- F1 generation

Incomplete Dominance- F2 generation

CODOMINANCECodominance- The condition in which both

alleles in a heterozygous organism are expressed.

• BOTH alleles contribute to the phenotype.

• The two alleles don’t blend, but are rather both present in the offspring.

Examples- Checkered Chickens, Roan Horses, Roan Cows, Variegated Clover.

Multiple Alleles

Multiple Alleles- Genes which have more than

two alleles.

It is common for more than 2 alleles to control

a trait in a population

Multiple alleles can only be studied in populations since each individual only has 2 alleles for a trait.

Examples: human blood types, fruit fly eye

color, coat color in rabbits: C, cch, ch, and c.

ABO Blood Type

• ABO blood type in humans is determined by three alleles:

IA IB i

• IA and IB are codominant alleles.

• Both IA and IB are dominant to the allele i.

Blood groups in humans

ABO blood groups have three forms of alleles.

Note:

• Type O blood may be transfused into all the other types = the universal donor.

• Type AB blood can receive blood from all the other blood types = the universal recipient.
