Question
when a flower with a red phenotype is crossed with a white phenotype in codominance, what will be the outcome for the offspring? red phenotype red and white phenotype white phenotype
In codominance, both alleles are expressed simultaneously in the phenotype of the heterozygote. When a flower with red phenotype (let's assume its genotype is \(RR\)) is crossed with a flower with white phenotype (let's assume its genotype is \(WW\)), the offspring will have a genotype of \(RW\). Since it is codominance, both the red - pigment - producing allele (\(R\)) and the white - pigment - producing allele (\(W\)) are expressed.
