Changes in these genes cause rare conditions in which Hay fever is seen. Most people with this trait have none of those conditions, and a gene on this list says nothing about anyone's own genome.

|---|---|---|
| SIK3SIK family kinase 3 | Always | In 1 condition |
| SPINK5serine peptidase inhibitor Kazal type 5 | Very often (80–99%) | In 1 condition |
| PGM3phosphoglucomutase 3 | Often (30–79%) | In 2 conditions |
| PLCG2phospholipase C gamma 2 | Often (30–79%) | In 1 condition |
| CARMIL2capping protein regulator and myosin 1 linker 2 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| CDSNcorneodesmosin | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| COX4I2cytochrome c oxidase subunit 4I2 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| DOCK8dedicator of cytokinesis 8 | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |
| IGHG2immunoglobulin heavy constant gamma 2 (G2m marker) | Sometimes (5–29%) | In 1 condition |

How often is among people with one of the gene's conditions, the most often across them, as the Human Phenotype Ontology records it. These pages describe traits and the research behind them; they are not a diagnosis, and a doctor or genetic counsellor is the person to ask about symptoms.
