A phenotype is the physical trait or feature of an organism that is the effect of a particular genotype. Flower color of snapdragons is one example of a phenotype, and the color is determined by which alleles comprise the genotype. Plants that are homozygous for the flower color alleles are either white or red. Heterozygous snapdragons are pink.
