The incomplete dominance can be define as the intermediate inheritance on which one allele for a specific trait is not completely expressed over the other paired allele.
Explanation:
- The incomplete dominance results in development of third phenotype. It is a combination of the phenotypes of both alleles.
- For example, pink snapdragon, it receives a red allele as well as white allele because in incomplete dominance a heterozygous individual blends the two traits.

Incomplete dominance is an inheritance condition where neither of the two alleles is dominant over the other in a heterozygous individual. This results in the the development of a blended phenotype in them.
Explanation:
- Non-Mendelian form of Inheritance.
- Here the two homozygous and the heterozygous individuals express three different types of phenotypes.
- The phenotype of the heterozygous individual is a mixture of the phenotypes of the two homozygous individuals.
- An example is the flowers of the plant : Snapdragon.
- They produce three types of flowers, red, pink and white.
- When cross is done between homozygous red flower plant and homozygous white flower plant the resulting progeny has a heterozygous genotype and develop pink flowers.
- Therefore, neither the red nor the white colour shows adominance over each other.
