How do you know if an allele is co-dominant?
An allele is a small piece of DNA responsible for some characteristic that plugs into a gene locus (or position) along a chromosome. Suppose the particular gene locus is responsible for flower colour in some plant. There may be alleles that plug in amongst the plant population for red or yellow flowers. Since chromosomes are paired, several combinations are possible. Both alleles may be red so the flower will be red and similarly for yellow. If there is a red allele and a yellow allele you may either get orange flowers but if one allele is dominant over the other the flower colour will be either red or yellow depending on which allele is dominant. If the red allele is dominant over the yellow there will be more red flowers. If it was only as simple as this three quarters of the flowers would be red and onequarter would be yellow. For two possible alleles with red dominant over yellow, there are four combinations:- R R Red flowers R Y Red flowers Y R Red flowers Y Y Yellow flowers
