• Genetic phenomenaBroader topic: Different alleles can produce distinct inherited effects.

• Lethal alleleNarrower topic: A lethal allele is a gene variant whose effect depends on the genotype carrying it.

• Y linkageRelated: A Y-linked allele is transmitted as part of the Y chromosome carrying it.
