What makes the difference between „sex mad prime numbers” and „selfish genes” is at least this: genes can share properties with anything el ...

The Rate and Tract Length of Gene Conversion between

Figure 1 illustrates such a strategy, which has a selected marker at position 432 bp. In addition to the selected ma ...

The scur gene, human error, poor judgment, and a varying degree of genetic influence on horn growth strongly suggest testing for the polled gene should be a mandatory when marketing or buying elite, highvalue pol ...

Epistasis



Epistasis is a phenomenon that consists of the effect of one gene being dependent on the presence of one or more 'modifier genes' (genetic background). Similarly, epistatic mutations have different effects in combination than individually. It was originally a concept from genetics but is now used in biochemistry, population genetics, computational biology and evolutionary biology. It arises due to interactions, either between genes, or within them leading to non-additive effects. Epistasis has a large influence on the shape of evolutionary landscapes which leads to profound consequences for evolution and evolvability of traits.
