Inheritance of Traits
... Since Mendel’s time, our knowledge of the mechanisms of genetic inheritance has grown immensely. For instance, it is now understood than inheriting one allele can, at times, increase the chance of inheriting another or can a affect how and when a trait is expressed in an individual's phenotype.
