Question

The inheritance pattern for snapdragon flower color exhibits incomplete dominance. a snapdragon that is homozygous for the red allele is crossed with a snapdragon that is homozygous for the white allele. what is the phenotypic outcome of the offspring that result from this cross?

Answer 1

The phenotypic outcome will be pink. Incomplete dominance means none of the traits are dominant, therefore they will not mask each other. As a result, they will produce a new trait. In the case of the snapdragons, red + white = pink.
Genotypic wise, all of the offspring will be heterozygous.
