(a): Some fungi form symbiotic associations with plants (mycorrhiza). Many members of the genus Glomus form mycorrhiza. The fungal symbiont in these associations absorbs phosphorus from soil and passes it to the plant. Plants having such associations show other benefits also, such as resistance to root-borne pathogens, tolerance to salinity and drought, and an overall increase in plant growth and development.

In an Australian cohort, co-inheritance of common alleles of the melanocortin 1 receptor (MC1R) such as Arg151Cys, Arg160Trp or Asp294His, increased the age-related penetrance of rare CDKN2A mutations from 50 to 84% and decreased the mean age of onset of melanoma by approximately 20 years. This is a good example of:
  1. The genetic basis of disease can often be due to the interaction between rare and common alleles in the same genes.
  2. The genetic basis of disease can often be due to the interaction between environmental factors, and rare and common alleles in the same genes.
  3. The genetic basis of disease can often be due to the interaction between environmental factors and rare alleles in a single gene.
  4. The genetic basis of disease can often be due to the interaction between environmental factors, and rare and common alleles in different genes.
