codominant
This term is used exclusively within the field of genetics to describe a specific relationship between alleles. It describes a scenario where neither allele is recessive or dominant over the other, resulting in a phenotype that simultaneously expresses both traits rather than a blend of the two.
It is frequently contrasted with incomplete dominance, where the resulting phenotype is an intermediate mix. For example, in codominance, a red flower and a white flower would produce offspring with distinct red and white patches, whereas incomplete dominance would produce pink flowers.
Meanings
Examples
The A and B alleles in human blood groups are codominant.

Wait, so both traits show up equally because they are codominant?
The researcher noted that the two alleles were codominant in the hybrid offspring.
I wonder if this specific genetic marker is codominant or just incomplete.
Codominant inheritance differs from incomplete dominance because neither allele is masked.
Codominant inheritance differs from incomplete dominance because neither allele is masked.
The roan coat color in cattle is a classic example of codominant expression.
Since the alleles are codominant, the phenotype displays both characteristics simultaneously.
