  2. Dominance (genetics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominance_(genetics)

    Autosomal dominant and autosomal recessive inheritance, the two most common Mendelian inheritance patterns. An autosome is any chromosome other than a sex chromosome.. In genetics, dominance is the phenomenon of one variant of a gene on a chromosome masking or overriding the effect of a different variant of the same gene on the other copy of the chromosome.

  3. Pedigree chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedigree_chart

    The word pedigree is a corruption of the Anglo-Norman French pé de grue or "crane's foot", either because the typical lines and split lines (each split leading to different offspring of the one parent line) resemble the thin leg and foot of a crane [3] or because such a mark was used to denote succession in pedigree charts.

  4. Punnett square - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punnett_square

    The following example illustrates a dihybrid cross between two double-heterozygote pea plants. R represents the dominant allele for shape (round), while r represents the recessive allele (wrinkled). A represents the dominant allele for color (yellow), while a represents the recessive allele (green).

  5. Directional selection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directional_selection

    Three different types of genetic selection. On each graph, the x-axis variable is the type of phenotypic trait and the y-axis variable is the amount of organisms. Group A is the original population and Group B is the population after selection. Top (Graph 1) represents directional selection with one extreme favored.

  6. Dihybrid cross - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihybrid_cross

    In these squares, the dominant traits are uppercase, and the recessive traits of the same characteristic is lowercase. In the following case the example of pea plant seed is chosen. The two characteristics being compared are; Shape: round or wrinkled (Round (R) is dominant) Color: yellow or green (Yellow (Y) is dominant)

  7. Diversity index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diversity_index

    A diversity index is a method of measuring how many different types (e.g. species) there are in a dataset (e.g. a community).Some more sophisticated indices also account for the phylogenetic relatedness among the types. [1]

  8. Dominance hierarchy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dominance_hierarchy

    Dominance hierarchies are found in many species of bird. For example, the blue-footed booby brood of two chicks always has a dominance hierarchy due to the asynchronous hatching of the eggs. One egg is laid four days before the other, and incubation starts immediately after laying, so the elder chick is hatched four days before the younger ...

  9. Disruptive selection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disruptive_selection

    These charts depict the different types of genetic selection. On each graph, the x-axis variable is the type of phenotypic trait and the y-axis variable is the amount of organisms. Group A is the original population and Group B is the population after selection. Graph 1 shows directional selection, in which a single extreme phenotype is favored.
