Character is feature of the organism or external appearance of the organism.Trait is inherited character and it's detectable variante.g consider one character as Height of plant, it is external appearance or feature while, tall and dwarf are there trait .Traits are in multiple forms and environmentally determined.
Character is a heritable expressed attribute of an organism. Whereas, a trait is a heritable variant of a character. An example would be a phenotypical expression of eye colour would be a trait of the character coloured iris in the eye.
both are same superficially but in terms of genetics both are different. In you read genetics book then you read all time traits are transmitted from one generation to another generation or in simple words from parent to progeny traits are transmitted. You never heared like characters transmit from one generation to another generation, but you heard about phenotype or character of progeny is tall, small, red, yellow, round etc. So in simple words you can say trait is transmitting factor from one generation to another generation and character is a visible factor.c
