Blood Types - Multiple Alleles and Co-dominance
In humans, there are four blood types (phenotypes): A, B, AB, and O Blood type is controlled by three alleles. A, B, O O is recessive, two O alleles must be present for the person to have type O blood A and B are co-dominant. If a person receives an A allele and a B allele, their blood type is type AB Crosses involving blood type often use an I to denote the alleles - see chart.
