What is Dominance and Recessiveness in Livestock Traits about?
In livestock, traits are expressed based on dominant and recessive alleles, where dominant alleles manifest their traits even when paired with a recessive allele. For example, a dominant black allele in cattle results in a black coat color, while a recessive red allele only expresses if two copies are inherited. Thus, an animal must inherit two recessive alleles to display the red coat color when no dominant alleles are present.
