Definition of codominance :
The situation in which a heterozygote shows the phenotypic effects of both alleles fully & equally, (eg blood group antigens).

 


Codominance
Codominance is a relationship between two versions of a gene. Individuals receive one version of a gene, called an allele, from each parent.

Codominance
The observation of a phenotype caused by independent expression of both alleles of a gene in a diploid.

codominance A type of inheritance in which heterozygotes fully express both alleles.
codon A sequence of three nucleotides in messenger RNA that codes for a single amino acid.

codominance
A phenotypic situation in which both alleles are expressed in the heterozygote.

Codominance: Equal effect on the phenotype of two alleles of the same locus (as opposed to recessive and dominant).

Codominance Situation in which two different alleles for a genetic trait are both expressed.

Codominance and Multiple Alleles- Example: ABO blood group
Up to this point, we have discussed two possible alleles for any gene locus. For example, at the flower color locus, there is either the red or the white allele (A or a).

Codominance
The property of an allele of a given gene, that can be setected in a heterozygote.

codominance A condition in which both alleles of a heterozygous pair are expressed independently.
codon A sequence of three bases on messenger RNA that specifies the position of an amino acid in a protein.

of the organism, while the other allele is called recessive as its qualities recede and are not observed. Some alleles do not have complete dominance and instead have incomplete dominance by expressing an intermediate phenotype, or codominance by ...
