Codominance, as it relates to genetics, refers to a type of inheritance in which two versions (alleles) of the same gene are expressed

Spotted cows and flowers with petals of two different colors are examples of codominance, for example. Codominance also occurs in some less visible traits, such as blood type. The A and B alleles for blood type can both be expressed at the same time, resulting in type AB blood.
