... patterns when alleles are not completely dominant or recessive , when a
particular gene has more than two alleles , or when a single gene produces
multiple phenotypes . We will describe examples of each of these situations in
this section .

Most genes , however , have multiple phenotypic effects , a property called
pleiotropy ( from the Greek pleion , more ) . For example , pleiotropic alleles are
responsible for the multiple symptoms associated with certain hereditary
diseases in ...
