Forms of dominance: Codominance --- Simple Dominance --- Incomplete Dominance

As has been said, with codominance the heterzygous and homozygous forms (aka, non-"super" and "super" forms) are visually distinguishable ... different phenotypes.

The way I understand it is that incomplete dominance creates a third phenotype that is a blending of the parental traits, ie red flower x white flower = pink flower. Not the case with hypos (you get hypos).

So that rules out both incomplete dominance and codominance.




someone please go into detail on the difference? as I understand it, Hypo is a dominant gene while motley is said to be co-dom. yet, both produce a "super form." how does this work, and where do arabasques fall in? supposedly arabasques are dominant, anybody proven it out yet?
