The genetic traits exhibited by organism due to the presence of a particular gene in its genome reflects the associated phenotype. Phenotype is the morphological expression of genotype.

The ability to synthesize histidine is a genetic trait. Bacteria not able to do so lack one or more genes that code the proteins involved in histidine biosynthesis. Here, the inability of histidine biosynthesis is the phenotype governed by the absence of the respective gene. Therefore, the bacteria unable to form histidine have different genotype and phenotype from the ones that can synthesize it.
