The longest serving ruler of Germany (1440-1493), âFredâ was also Holy Roman Emperor from 1452 to 1493, although by that time being Roman Emperor did not mean the same as it did in ancient times. Fred had been born in Innsbruck, Austria and was the Archduke of Austria (1424-1493).
Definition: Incomplete dominance is a form of intermediate inheritance in which one allele for a specific trait is not completely expressed over its paired allele. This results in a third phenotype in which the expressed physical trait is a combination of the dominant and recessive phenotypes.
Dominance in genetics is a relationship between alleles of one gene, in which the effect on phenotype of one allele masks the contribution of a second allele at the same locus. The first allele is dominant and the second allele is recessive.For genes on an autosome (any chromosome other than a sex chromosome), the alleles and their associated traits are autosomal dominant or autosomal recessive. Dominance is a key concept in Mendelian inheritance and classical genetics.Often the dominant allele codes for a functional protein whereas the recessive allele does not. A classic example of dominance is the inheritance of seed shape, for example a pea shape in peas.ominance is a key concept in Mendelian inheritance and classical genetics.
