(Notes)
‘It is usual for the activity of a gene on one strand *[or chromosome]* to be masked or inhibited by its counterpart on the other strand *[of the pair]*. An important exception to this is in the determination of colo[u]ration patterns, in which the genes may appear to blend, producing colour patterns different from those of the parents.’
