Lesson
1 Incomplete Dominance
What’s In
In Mendelian inheritance pattern during your Grade 8 Biology, you learned the
following: One allele is completely dominant over the other allele
A cross between opposing homozygous individuals result in a heterozygous form of the dominant allele
Self-fertilization of F1 generation gives a 3:1 phenotypic ratio and 1:2:1 genotypic ratio
Recessive allele will show in succeeding generations only in
homozygous form.
However, there are some traits that we can say that violate Mendelian
patterns of inheritance. In this new lesson, you will discover new patterns of
inheritance that does not follow Mendel’s and some of their real – life examples.
What I Need to Know
At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:
1. Define and describe incomplete dominance pattern of inheritance; and 2. Solve problems involving incomplete dominance using Punnett square.
What’s New
In Mendelian patterns of inheritance, the effect of the recessive gene is not observed when the dominant gene is present. It is common practice to use capital letter (of the first letter of the dominant trait) to represent the dominant allele while a lowercase is used to represent the recessive one.
4
Not all traits however, obey this observation thus assigning one allele with a
capital letter and the other in lowercase do not work when neither allele is completely dominant over the other.
To better understand this lesson, read and analyze the given problem in the activity below. Try to answer it using your knowledge in previous grade about Punnett square.
Problem: Among four o’clock plants, R is the allele for red flowers and W is the
allele for white flowers. With a Punnett square,show the cross between a homozygous red and a homozygous white flowers. What are the genotypes of the offsprings?
Show the cross between 2 heterozygous flowers using a Punnett square and identify the phenotypic and genotypic ratios.
What Is It
For the traits that Mendel studied – where one allele is completely dominant over the other – the phenotype of the resulting heterozygote offspring is identical to that of the homozygous dominant parent.
There are some genes however that in heterozygote offspring do not share the phenotype of either parent. This is evident when one allele is NOT completely dominant over the other. The heterozygous form shows a phenotype different from both parents. Just like the one given in the problem above.
Notice that 2 letters are used here, R for red and W for white which should tell us that one color is not completely dominant over the other color. Let us try to see and discover as we answer the problem. If we are to make a Punnett Square from it, it would look like the figure below.
Illustration by Mabel B. Cabilin
Figure 1. A Punnett square showing a cross between a red and a white four o’clock flower and its offspring

▪ What are the genotypes of the offsprings?
Genotype refers to the actual gene content of an individual. In the problem
above, RR and WW are the genotypes of our parents. When a homozygous red-
flowered four o’clock plant (RR) crosses with a homozygous white-flowered four
o’clock plant (WW), their offspring which are all heterozygous are pink-flowered
plants (RW). They do not produce red nor white-flowered plants because neither of
the two is completely dominant. Red is incompletely dominant over white and vice
versa.
▪ What are the genotypic and phenotypic ratios?
In incomplete dominance, one-half of the gametes of the heterozygotes (pink
flowers) carry the allele for the red flower and the other one-half carry the allele for
the white flower. Thus, when 2 heterozygous flowers are crossed, the Punnett
square would look like the one below
Figure 2. A Punnett square showing a cross between 2 pink four o’clock flower and its offspring
Both the genotypic and
ratio would be 1 RR : 2 RW
red: pink: white.
phenotypic ratios is 1:2:1. In this case, the genotypic
:1 WW , and the phenotypic ratio would be 1:2:1 for
Incomplete Dominance is a non-Mendelian inheritance pattern where a
heterozygous organism does not show the traits of the parents and instead results in
a new phenotype intermediate between parental phenotypes. By intermediate we
mean that the new phenotype is a blend or mix of the 2 parental phenotypes. The blended traits are coded for by two alleles inherited from both parents.
Each of the two homozygous genotypes (refers to the parents) show a different
phenotype since they are still distinct and separated from each other. The resulting
phenotype of the heterozygote is typically in between the two different homozygote
phenotypes.
6
Other than four o’clock plants, petal coloration of snap dragons and flowering time of garden peas also show incomplete dominance. Fur coat of horses and feather color among andalusian fowls in animals are common examples.
Remember that in Incomplete Dominance: ✓ Only the phenotype of the heterozygote is blended (or intermediate).
✓ The alleles of the parents (which, in this case, are red and white-flowered plants) are are still distinct and separate from each other.
✓ The genotypic ratio also becomes the phenotypic ratio since half of the gametes of the offsprings carry half of both the parents.

Offspring of Parents #2
50% Palomino 25% Chestnut brown 25 % Creamy white

25% Yellow snapdragons 50% orange snapdragons 25% red snapdragons
10
What’s In
In the previous lesson, you learned that some genes in heterozygous
offspring do not share the phenotype of either parent but instead, show an
intermediate phenotype which results from the blending of the parents’ phenotype.
This pattern of inheritance is due to incomplete dominance of genes.
In this new lesson, you are going to get in touch and eventually discover
another non-Mendelian pattern of inheritance.
What I Need to Know
At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:
1. Define and describe incomplete codominance pattern of inheritance; and
2. Solve problems involving incomplete codominance using Punnett square.
What’s New
Another non-Mendelian pattern of inheritance is Codominance. Read and analyze the problem below.
11
Lesson
Codominance
2
Problem: Among cattles, coat color is controlled by codominant genes where red
[RR] is codominant with white [WW]. With a Punnett square show the cross between a homozygous red cow and a homozygous white cow. What are the genotypes of the offsprings?
Show the cross between 2 heterozygous cows using a Punnett square and identify the phenotypic and genotypic ratios.
What Is It
Cattles exhibit 3 different phenotypes namely: homozygous red [RR] coats,
homozygous white [WW] coats and heterozygous roan [RW] coats which is a mix of
red hairs and white hairs. The appearance of roan coats is due to the codominance
of the red and white coat color alleles.
To answer the given problem above, the constructed Punnett square would look like the figure below.
Illustration by Mabel B. Cabilin
Figure 3. Codominance showing a cross between red and white cattle.
12
▪ What are the genotypes of the offsprings?
As shown in the Punnett Square above, if a homozygous red coat bull mates with a homozygous white coat cow, all their offspring are roan showing both the alleles of the red bull and white cow. This simply means that the white coat has red patches on it.
In codominance, one-half of the gametes of the heterozygotes (roan cows)
carry the allele for the red bull and the other one-half carry the allele for the white
cow. Thus, when 2 heterozygous cows are crossed, the Punnett square would look
like the one below
Figure 4. Codominance showing a cross between 2 roan cattles.
Both the genotypic and phenotypic ratios is 1:2:1. In this case, the genotypic
ratio would be 1 RR : 2 RW : 1 WW , and the phenotypic ratio would be 1 red: 2
roan:1 white.
Codominance is another non-Mendelian inheritance pattern where a heterozygous organism exhibits the traits of both parents. In this form of inheritance, the alleles of a gene pair in a heterozygote offspring are fully expressed or exhibited. As a result, the offspring’s phenotype is the combination of the parent’s phenotype due to a shared dominance.

Lesson
Multiple Alleles
3
What’s In
In Lesson 2, you learn that codominance results in a phenotype that exhibits
both the homozygous parental phenotypes. This proves that the trait shares
dominance and is expressed in heterozygous form.
In this new lesson, you are going to learn that some traits are controlled by
more than two types of alleles which can result to the expression of more than two
phenotypes.
What I Need to Know
At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:
1. Define and describe multiple allele pattern of inheritance 2. Solve problems involving multiple alleles using a Punnett square
What’s New
Mendel’s work on garden peas led him to suggest that a specific gene is
controlled by only two alleles which could be misleading. There are instances
however that, even if only two alleles control a trait, there can actually be more than
two alleles available. This is referred to as multiple alleles.
Multiple alleles exist in population level such that different individuals in the
population may have different pairs of alleles. But the fact remains that humans and
other diploid organisms can only have two alleles controlling any gene.
17
Consider the human ABO Blood Group system and analyse the problem below.
Problem: Human blood type is controlled by three alleles namely A, B and O where
A and B are codominant to each other and both are dominant over O. With a Punnett square show the cross between a heterozygous blood type B man and a heterozygous blood type A woman. What is/are the possible of blood type/s of their offspring? How many percent of their offspring have a blood type O?
What Is It
In humans, the ABO Blood Group system is a character governed by multiple
alleles. There are 3 alleles that govern this system: IA
, IB
and i. Different interactions of these alleles is summarized in the table below
Table I: Human Blood Types
Blood Type Genotype
Blood type A IAIA
I A i
Blood type B IBIB
I B i
Blood type AB IAIB
Blood type O Ii
Let us try to solve the problem presented earlier in this lesson by making a Punnett square to show the cross between parents. It would look like the one shown below.
I A i
I B IAIB I B i
i I A i i i
• What is/are the possible blood type/s of their offspring??
Based on the Punnett square above, the possible blood types of their
offspring are blood type AB,blood type A, blood type B and blood type O.
18
• How many percent of their offspring have a blood type O?
If we take another look at the Punnett square above, there are 4 offspring all of differing blood types. There is only 1 offspring that possesses blood type O. Therefore, 25% of the offspring has a blood type O.

Summary
The inheritance of some characteristics are not as simple as those that were studied by Mendel in his garden pea plants. That’s why geneticists usually call them those that violate Mendel’s principles. They are associated with phenomena such as codominance, incomplete dominance, multiple alleles, and sex-linked traits (to be discussed on the next module).
• Incomplete Dominance is a non-Mendelian inheritance pattern where a
heterozygous organism do not show the traits of the parents and instead
results in a new phenotype intermediate between parental phenotypes.
By intermediate we mean that the new phenotype is a blend or mix of the
2 parental phenotypes. ✓ Only the phenotype of the heterozygote is blended (or
intermediate).
✓ The alleles of the parents (which, in this case, are red and white-flowered plants) are are still distinct and separate from each other.
✓ The genotypic ratio also becomes the phenotypic ratio since half of the gametes of the offsprings carry half of both the parents.
• Codominance is another non-Mendelian inheritance pattern where a heterozygous organism exhibits the traits of both parents. In this form of inheritance, the alleles of a gene pair in a heterozygote offspring are fully expressed or exhibited. As a result, the offspring’s phenotype is the combination of the parent’s phenotype due to a shared dominance.
Like in incomplete dominance, the genotypic ratio is the same as the
phenotypic ratio codominance. Examples of this include A and B blood
types in humans, sickle-cell disease, and coat color in cattle and horses.
✓ The phenotype of the heterozygote is a combination of the phenotypes of the homozygous parents
✓ The trait has shared dominance
✓ Like in incomplete dominance, the genotypic ratio is the same as the phenotypic ratio.
• Multiple Alleles, a specific gene pair is controlled by more than two
alleles. Thus, there are more than two phenotypes that are exhibited or
expressed in the offspring. The ABO Blood Group system is the most
common example of the character governed by this inheritance.
22
✓ More than two phenotypes are exhibited or expressed in the offsprings.
✓ In the ABO Blood Group system:
Alleles IA and IB are codominant to each other Alleles IA and IB are dominant over the i allele
Allele i i is always recessive.
