Genetics.the chromosomal position of a gene as determined by its linear order relative to the other genes on that chromosome. Origin of locus 1 First recorded in 1525–35; from Latin; Old Latinstlocus“a place” Words Nearbylocus locular ...
meaning that some proportion of the animals will carry the necessary combination of alleles for the phenotype to be expressed if epistasis is involved. In such cases, QTL mapping procedures are capable of identifying the interacting loci. A pair scan analysis conducted in Rqtl did not reveal any...
In the 1950s, Rotter (1954) suggested the concept locus of control, meaning the place where control of desired reinforcement for behavior is exerted. Internal control means control within the person, external control means control outside the person, possibly in powerful others, in objective extern...
We also searched the CH17 haplotypes for all IGL and IGK gene/allele sequences classified as 'not located' in the IMGT database/GENE-DB35 and IMGT Gene tables (www.imgt.org), meaning that these genes have not been located within IGL or IGK loci. Using this approach we mapped the ...

Generally, the deletions were detected more frequent in visceral fat tissue. Predominantly detected cn-LOH vs. CNV suggests a meaning of these cn-LOH for the pathogenesis of obesity. We conclude that the SNP array and FISH analyses used is applicable to generate more i...
In population genetics, gametic disequilibrium refers to a multifactorial evolutionary dynamic phenomenon that occurs at normal selection, characterized by statistically significant and intensity-variable nonrandom associations of alleles at two or more DNA loci, physically mapped on the same (even though ...
We consider evidence that shared experience is associated with sibling resemblance and report new analyses of our earlier data to assess the magnitude and meaning of that association. We cite recent Swedish studies of early separated twins and present new data from reared-apart twins in Finland. Re...
