6.4 Traits, Genes, and Alleles
... An allele is an alternative form of a gene, which codes for a different form of the same trait. Alleles are found at the same location, or locus, on homologous chromosomes ...

Gregor Mendel and Genetics
... When the offspring inherit two different alleles for one trait, the trait that is expressed is said to be dominant while the other is recessive. In Mendel’s pea plants that had one allele for tall and one allele for short, the peas were tall because tall is the dominant trait. ...
