Science / Genetics / Pleiotropy: The phenomenon of variable phenotypes for a number of distinct and seemingly unrelated phenotypic effects. MORE
Science / Genetics / Imprinting: A chemical modification of a gene allele which can be used to identify maternal or paternal origin of chromosome. MORE
Science / Genetics / Heterogeneity: The production of identical or similar phenotypes by different genetic mechanisms. MORE
Science / Biology / Dominant: Refers to an allele of a gene that is always expressed in heterozygotes. MORE
Science / Biology / Genotype: The genetic (alleleic) makeup of an organism with regard to an observed trait. MORE
Science / Marine Biology / Phenotypic Plasticity: The capacity of an individual to produce different phenotypes under different conditions. Non-genetic potential variability within the range of a single individual. MORE
