Distinguishing genotype and phenotype in genetic programming
Distinguishing genotype and phenotype in genetic programming

... Genetic programming (GP) was introduced in Koza (1993). GP is the application of the genetic algorithm (GA) technique to the problem of producing computer programs. Koza (1993) does this by extending GA techniques to deal with genotypes of type tree—LISP trees in particular. Michalewicz (1994) descr ...

Inheritance of Autosomal Recessive Genetic Diseases

... These genetic diseases are diseases caused by an error in a single DNA gene. Autosomal means the errors occurs on chromosome 1..22 rather than on the 23rd sex-linked X chromosome. Recessive means that disease only occurs when a person has two copies of the bad gene. Usually this means they must inhe ...

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.
