Genetic predisposition — A genetic predisposition is a genetic effect which influences the phenotype of an organism but which can be modified by the environmental conditions. Genetic testing is able to identify individuals who are genetically predisposed to certain… … Wikipedia
Genetic hitchhiking — is the process by which an evolutionarily neutral or in some cases deleterious allele or mutation may spread through the gene pool by virtue of being linked to a beneficial mutation. More generally, genetic hitchhiking can refer to the process by … Wikipedia
Genetic erosion — is a process whereby an already limited gene pool of an endangered species of plant or animal diminishes even more when individuals from the surviving population die off without getting a chance to meet and breed with others in their endangered… … Wikipedia
Selection (disambiguation) — Selection may refer to:* Selection, in the context of biological evolution * in computer science ** Selection algorithm, an algorithm that finds the k th smallest number in a list ** Selection (genetic algorithm) ** Selection (relational algebra) … Wikipedia
Genetic drift — ] Especially in small populations, the statistical effect of sampling error ( during reproduction ) on certain alleles from the overall population may result in an allele ( and the biological traits that it confers ) becoming more common or rare… … Wikipedia
Genetic code — A series of codons in part of a messenger RNA (mRNA) molecule. Each codon consists of three nucleotides, usually representing a single amino acid. The nucleotides are abbreviated with the letters A, U, G and C. This is mRNA, which uses U (uracil) … Wikipedia
Genetic assimilation — Note: Genetic assimilation is sometimes used to describe eventual extinction of a natural species as massive pollen flow occurs from another related species and the older crop becomes more like the new crop.… … Wikipedia

selection — The combined effect of the causes and consequences of genetic factors that determine the average number of progeny of a species that attain sexual maturity; phenotypes that are lethal early in life ( e.g., Tay Sachs disease), that cause … Medical dictionary
