Study Notes

Incomplete Dominance

  • In incomplete dominance, the phenotype of heterozygous individuals is a blend of the two parental traits.
  • The pattern of dominance exhibited in incomplete dominance is neither allele being completely dominant or recessive.
  • When a red-flowered snapdragon (RR) is crossed with a white-flowered snapdragon (WW) in incomplete dominance, the result is a pink-flowered snapdragon (RW), which is a blend of the two parental traits.
