Question
"How to Solve Genetic Problems" Using Letters for Alleles For convenience, the genes of an allele pair are usually symbolized by a letter from the alphabet. A large letter is used for the dominant trait and a small letter for the recessive trait. When we want to describe the genotype of an organism, we use both letters to represent the alleles inherited from the parents. For example, free earlobes is a dominant allele and attached earlobes is recessive. You would use a capital "F" to indicate the dominant allele and a small “f" to indicate the recessive allele in describing an individual. 1.
