ABO blood group system gives type O. As both "I" and "I" are dominant over "i", only "ii" people have type O blood. Individuals with "II" or "Ii" have type A blood, and individuals with "II" or "Ii" have type B. "II" people have both phenotypes, because A and B express a special dominance relationship: codominance, which means that type A and B parents can have an AB child. A couple with type A and type B can also have a type O child if they are both heterozygous ("Ii","Ii"). The "cis-AB" phenotype has a single enzyme that creates both A and B antigens.
ABO blood group system group B blood agglutinates with group A. Group C blood is different in that it agglutinates with both A and B. This was the discovery of blood groups for which Landsteiner was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1930. In his paper, he called the specific blood group interactions as isoagglutination, and also introduced the concept of agglutinins (antibodies), which is the actual basis of antigen-antibody reaction in ABO system. He asserted: Thus, he discovered two antigens (agglutinogens A and B) and two antibodies (agglutinins - anti-A and anti-B). His third group (C) indicated absence of both
