Incomplete Dominance & Codominance
S
Learning Goals
S 1. Describe incomplete dominance. Describe codominance.
S 2. Compare and contrast incomplete dominance and
codominance. Give 2 similarities and 1 difference.
S 3. Explain how letters are chosen when doing punnett square
problems for incomplete dominant and codominant traits
S 4. Explain what multiple alleles are and give an example
S 5. Describe what a polygenic trait is and give an example.
Beyond Dominant and
Recessive Alleles
S Some alleles are neither dominant
nor recessive, and many traits are
controlled by multiple alleles or
multiple genes.
Incomplete Dominance
S Incomplete dominance - when one
allele is not completely dominant over
another.
S Heterozygous genotype = BLEND
S Since one allele is not completely dominant over
the other allele, we use two different capital letters
to represent the alleles
S Example: A cross
between red (RR)
and white (WW)
snapdragons
produces pink
flowers (RW).
Homozygous Heterozygous Homozygous
RR
RW
WW
(Red)
(Pink)
(White)
Codominance
S Codominance - both alleles contribute
to the phenotype.
S Heterozygous genotype = both traits appear
S Since one allele is not completely dominant over
the other allele, and both traits appear together, we
use two different capital letters to represent the
alleles
S Example: A cross between black (BB) and
white (WW) chickens produces chickens
speckled with black and white feathers (BW).
Multiple Alleles
S Multiple alleles -genes that are
controlled by more than two alleles.
S An individual can’t have more than two
alleles (Remember you get one copy from
each parent). However, more than two
possible alleles can exist in a population.
•Example: A
human’s blood
type is
determined by a
single gene that
has three different
alleles.
Polygenic Traits
S Polygenic traits -traits controlled by
two or more genes.
S Skin color in humans is a polygenic trait
controlled by more than four different genes.

Whiteboard Practice
S Step 1: Incomplete Dominance or Codominance??????
S Step 2: You will be given the 3 phenotypes, Write the
corresponding genotypes.
S 2 alleles (1 from mom, 1 from dad)
S Use the 1st letter for each trait
S Both letters are capitol
S Step 3: Set up and fill-in a punnett square. Calculate
percent probability for ALL 3 TRAITS!!!
Let’s do the
st
1
one together 

bird
Practice Identifying
