... I. Suppression – a mutation in one gene alleviates the defect of a mutation in another gene—“low-copy” suppressor. II. Suppression – overexpression of a wild-type copy of a gene alleviates the defect of a mutation in another gene—“high-copy suppressor”. In this case the wild-type allele of a gene is ...

Under normal circumstances, all the linked genes remain together during cell division and so pass into the gamete, and hence the offspring, together. They do not therefore segregate in accordance with Mendel's Second Law of Independent Assor ...

Quantitative trait locus

A quantitative trait locus (QTL) is a section of DNA (the locus) that correlates with variation in a phenotype (the quantitative trait). The QTL typically is linked to, or contains, the genes that control that phenotype. QTLs are mapped by identifying which molecular markers (such as SNPs or AFLPs) correlate with an observed trait. This is often an early step in identifying and sequencing the actual genes that cause the trait variation.Quantitative traits are phenotypes (characteristics) that vary in degree and can be attributed to polygenic effects, i.e., the product of two or more genes, and their environment.
