A gene showing codominance has

A

one allele dominant on the other

B

alleles tightly linked on the same chromosome

C

alleles that are recessive to each other

D

Both alleles independently expressed in the heterozygote

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
A gene shows codominance when both alleles in heterozygous condition, express their traits independtly instead of showing dominant-recessive relationship and such alleles are called codominant alleles.
