Traits such as hair and eye color and the presence of phenylketonuria (PKU) are alleles and follow this pattern. • A genotype is the underlying combination of genetic material present in an organism, but invisible; a phenotype is the visible trait, the expression of the genotype. • ...
brucei bloodstream forms,14 still occurred in mutants deficient in three of the five MCAs present in the organism.17 These three T. brucei MCAs colocalised with RAB11, yet the proteins appeared to have a role independent of the known 1Wellcome Centre for Molecular Parasitology, Glasgow ...
-randomly, as changes in the concentration of gene products can have a selective advantage for the organism73. These genes may provideOphryswith an opportunity to respond to selection by pollinators, e.g., through positive dosage effects or neofunctionalisation and pseudogenisation of the less e...
a.pertaining to the allele of a gene pair whose effect is masked by the second allele when both are present in the same cell or organism. b.of or pertaining to the hereditary trait determined by such an allele. n. 3.Genetics.
equi, is also present in the novel parasite. Practically, significant sequence divergence in antigenic loci resulted in this undescribed Theileria sp. not being detectable using currently available diagnostic tests. Discovery of this novel species infective to equids highlights exceptional diversity within ...
tsutsugamushi attaches to the host cell and is internalized, in a process facilitated by Sca C (a bacterial autotransporter protein); the TSA 56 antigen present on the organism; and syndecan 4 (a cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan), fibronectin, and integrin α5β1 on the host cells. ...
Because almost all the individuals from Loua were homozygous for AdhS and those of Kronenbourg for the AdhF alleles, their genotypes were used to identify partners from each mating pair. Both alleles were, however, present in the two populations, but the rare alleles (AdhF in Loua and AdhS ...
organism present in the samples that were used for RNA extraction; as expected, this value was always higher for the apple, and it is approximatively 10% for both the biocontrol agent and the fungal pathogen in the dual interactions, and ~15% for the BCA and ~2% for the pathogen in ...
2001). Two classes of alleles, restrictive and permissive, are present in natural populations in about the same proportions (Pelisson et al. 1997). Restrictive alleles (flamR) are dominant and repress mobilization of functional gypsy proviruses. Therefore, strains containing flamR alleles are ...
2014) revealed a greater abundance of ‘private’ alleles in aus compared to other rice groups, particularly around major domestication genes like Sh4, sd1, Wx, and Rc that control traits such as grain shattering, semi-dwarf height, grain amylose content, and pericarp colour, respectively (Wang...
