From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:
Allelomorph \Al*le"lo*morph\, n. [Gr. [?] of one another + Gr.       [?] form.] (Biol.)       One of the pure unit characters commonly existing singly or       in pairs in the germ cells of Mendelian hybrids, and       exhibited in varying proportion among the organisms       themselves. Allelomorphs which under certain circumstances       are themselves compound are called {hypallelomorphs}. See       {Mendel's law}. -- {Al*le`lo*mor"phic}, a.                   As we know that the several unit characters are of such                a nature that any one of them is capable of                independently displacing or being displaced by one or                more alternative characters taken singly, we may                recognize this fact by naming such characters                allelomorphs.                                          --Bateson.
