Question
With the help of an example, differentiate between incomplete dominance and co-dominance.
| Incomplete dominance | Co-dominance | |
| (1) | Effect of one of the two alleles is more conspicuous | The effect of both the alleles is equally con- spicuous |
| (2) | It produces a fine mix- ture of the expression of two alleles. | There is no mixing of the effect of the two al- leles. |
| (3) | The effect in hybrid is intermediate of the expression of the two alleles, e.g. flower col- our in Mirabilis jalapa Red, Pink, ans white | Both the alleles produce their effect independent- ly, e.g. AB blood group. |
| (4) | Alleles show quantita- tive effect. One dom- inant allele produces half and two dominant alleles produce full phenotype. | There is no quantitative effect of the alleles. |
