Introduction to Genetics
... The term genotype the genes present in the DNA of an organism. We will use a pair of letters (ex: Tt or YY or ss, etc.) to represent genotypes for one particular trait. There are always two letters in the genotype because (as a result of sexual reproduction) one code for the trait comes from mama or ...
