Relative allele frequency is the percentage of all copies of a certain gene in a population that carry a specific allele. This is an accurate measurement of the amount of genetic variation in a ...

Epistasis describes how gene interactions can affect phenotypes ... In this cross, whenever a dominant allele is present at either locus, the biochemical conversion occurs, and a colored kernel ...

Some characteristics are controlled by a single gene, such as fur in animals and red-green colour blindness in humans. Each gene might have different forms, and these are called alleles.

The height of pea plants is controlled by a single gene which has two alleles: tall and short. The tall allele is dominant and is shown as T. The small allele is recessive and is shown as t.

Researchers have discovered that a gene variant, KIR3DL1*114, linked to Denisovans, may impact the immune response in First ...

Snap bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) is a significant vegetable crop globally, with its immature pods harvested as the edible part. Pod dimensions–length, width, and thickness–affect the size and ease of ...

Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), widely cultivated in the cool-season for forage supply and turfgrass, is extremely ...
