Codominance means that neither allele can mask the expression of the other allele. An example in humans would be the ABO blood group, where alleles A and alleles B are both expressed. So if an individual inherits allele A from their mother and allele B from their father, they have blood type AB.
What is Codominance and incomplete dominance with example?
An example of codominance is the roan cow which has both red hairs and white hairs. In incomplete dominance a heterozygous individual blends the two traits. An example of incomplete dominance is the pink snapdragon, which receives a red allele and white allele.
Is skin color an example of incomplete dominance?
In humans, skin color is an an example of incomplete dominance because the genes responsible for melanin production and light or dark skin can't establish dominance. As a result, the offspring often has a skin color that is between the skin tones of the parents.
