Abstract
Two sorts of populations of biparental progenies from which data can be used for the estimation of the degree of dominance in the action of genes have been described. The mathematical basis for the estimation methods have been presented in detail together with some discussion of limiting assumptions involved. A numerical example of the arithmetic procedures is given and an approximate test of significance of the estimate of dominance is outlined.Keywords
