... From comparison of genome sequence to a recombination map made by Lister and Dean, we learned that Arabidopsis has approximately 250 kb per map unit. That represents about 100 genes. For convenience, we aim for map resolution of 0.1 map units, which should represent 25-100 kb and hopefully 10-20 ge ...

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.
