The alleles of a particular gene are neither dominant nor recessive. Eg. Homozygous re-flower was crossed with homozygous white-flower the offspring all had pink-flowers. Neither red nor white is dominant. As neither parental colour was dominant, and as form of blending appeared to have taken place, the term co-dominance (or incomplete dominance) is used.
