Mendelian inheritance
An allele ( UK pron.: / ˈ æ l iː l / or US / ə ˈ l iː l / ) is one of a number of alternative forms of the same gene or same genetic locus (generally a group of genes). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is the alternative form of a gene for a character producing different effects. Sometimes, different alleles can result in different observable phenotypic traits , such as different pigmentation.
