Actually, no. The correct term would be incomplete dominance. The ball python community just commonly uses the incorrect term. Its not big deal, but the biologist in me couldnt skip over someone saying they are the same thing.Originally Posted by kikkimea
Sorry, I didn't pay attention when reading this, I was thinking of unproven dominant, such as Spider and Pinstripe..
They both mean the same thing, but most people, myself included, say co-dom and so does WOB, so let's not split hairs ok
Easy example - Flower with one allele for white petals and one allele for red petals.
Codom - You get a flower with solid red spots and solid white spots on its petals, no pink (mixing).
Incomplete Dom - You get a flower with all pink petals (no solid white or red).
