Single gene traits: controlled by a single gene that has two alleles (ex: widow's peak) – only two phenotypes are possible – widow's peak or no widow's peak.Polygenic traits: controlled by two or more genes. Has 2 or more alleles. One polygenic trait can have many possible genotypes and phenotypes!
