Explain the Incomplete Dominance with example.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Incomplete Dominance : It is the condition where one allele of agene is not completely dominant over the other allele and results in the heterozygous having phenotype different from the dominant and recessive homozygotes.
In a cross between true beeding red plants, (rr) the `F_(1)` was pink (Rr). When the `F_(1)` was self pollinated, the `F_(2)` resulted in the ratio of `{:("1 (RR) : 2 (Rr) : 1 (rr)"),(" Red Pink White"):}`
Here the genotype rations were as in monohubrid cross of Mendel but the phenotypic ratio had changed from the `3:1` because, R was not completely dominant over r and is possible the phenotypic and genotypic ration in `F_(2)` progeny are the same, that is `1:2:1`.
