allele

(allelomorph). Any of one or more alternative forms of a given gene; both (or all) alleles of a given gene are concerned with the same trait or characteristic, but a particular allele codes for a product qualitatively and/or quantitatively different from that coded by other alleles of that gene.

allele

<genetics> Any one of a series of two or more different genes that occupy the same position (locus) on a chromosome. ... Since autosomal chromosomes are paired, each autosomal locus is represented twice. If both chromosomes have the same allele, occupying the same locus, the condition is referred to as homozygous for this allele. ... If the a...

allele

(ә-lēl´) one of the two or more alternative forms of a gene that can occur at a particular chromosomal site (locus), and which determine alternative characters in inheritance. Because autosomal chromosomes occur in pairs, an individual will have two alleles, which may be the same or different, for each ...

Allele

An allele (pronounced UH-leel is one of multiple alternative forms of a single gene, each of which is a viable DNA sequence occupying a given position, or locus on a chromosome. For example, in humans, one allele of the eye-color gene produces blue eyes and another allele of the eye-color gene produces brown eyes.
