What is it called when two different alleles of a gene are expressed? What do we call the term used to refer to an organism that has two identical alleles for a particular trait? What are three or more alleles of the same gene that code for a single trait called?
Alleles are two or more alternative forms of a gene that arise by mutation and are located at the same place on a chromosome. It is of various types like lethal alleles, multiple alleles, etc. Answer and Explanation: When there are more than two alle...
However, an important criterion for a trait being a useful endophenotype is a substantial overlap in genetic architecture with the disease itself (Calafato and Bramon, 2019; Iacono et al., 2017). The likelihood of such an overlap has been indicated by research that shows attenuated mismatch in...
bicolor (the two species have an identical monoploid number: x = 10) (Fig. 3A). We used the anchored markers of LGs for subsequent analysis of colinearity and synteny between the two parents and the two mentioned close species, which displayed extensive conservation of synteny and colinearity ...
Here, three diploid full-sib populations were genotyped with an amplicon sequencing approach and phenotyped for unreduced pollen production across two growing seasons. We identified two minor-effect and three major-effect QTLs regulating this trait. The two QTLs with the largest effect displayed a ...
Definitive identification of the functional variants and genes remains a major challenge of GWAS. In this study, the most significant SNP, rs116446171 (6p25.3), is identical to that shown to be highly associated with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma in European and East Asian populations31,32. Wh...
Higher scores on the personality trait of neuroticism, the tendency to experience negative emotions, are associated with worse mental and physical health. Studies examining links between neuroticism and health typically operationalize neuroticism by summ
Genotype imputation is commonly used as an initial step in genomic selection since the accuracy of genomic selection does not decline if accurately imputed genotypes are used instead of actual genotypes but for a lower cost. Performance of imputation has rarely been investigated in crossbred animals ...
a better understanding of host-parasite interactions. Indeed, there is much to be gained from comparative approaches that include nonhuman primate malaria parasites. For example, antigenic variation was first discovered inP. knowlesi[26,27], a convergent trait found inP. falciparumlater [14,28,29]...
