Variegated
Definition:
(imp. & p. p.) of Variegate
(a.) Having marks or patches of different colors; as, variegated leaves, or flowers.
Example Sentences:

(2) Such characteristics are reminiscent of the behavior of variegating position-effects in Drosophila and the application of this paradigm to human disease phenotypes provides both a mechanism by which differential genome imprinting may be accomplished as well as genetic models that may explain the clinical association of syntenic diseases, the association between tumor progression and specific chromosomal aneuploidy and the unusual inheritance characteristics of many diseases.
