| galtonian | Attributed to or described by Sir Francis Galton. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| galtonian genetics | The study of traits by analysis of the first two moments of metrical data; the preferred method for analysis of traits following the multivariate gaussian distribution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| galtonian inheritance | Inheritance in which a measurable phenotype is generated by many loci, the contributions of which are statistically independent, additive, and of about equal value. (The latter are in accordance with the classical central limit therein and justify the use of the multivariate normal distribution in galtonian genetics). Synonym: polygenic inheritance. (05 Mar 2000) |
| galtonian trait | A quantitative genetic trait due to contributions from many more of less equally important loci that resembles a continuous trait. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Galtonian-Fisher genetics | The genetics of measurable traits determined by multiple loci which make contributions that are independent, additive, and approximately equal. Synonym: multilocal genetics. (05 Mar 2000) |

| galvanic | Of or pertaining to, or exhibiting the phenomena of, galvanism; employing or producing electrical currents. <physics> Galvanic battery, the voltaic pile. See Voltaic. Origin: From Galvani, a professor of physiology at Bologna, on account of his connection (about 1780) with the discovery of dynamical or current electricity: cf. F. Galvanique.

| galvanic skin reflex | A change in electrical resistance of the skin, occurring in emotion and in certain other conditions. (12 Dec 1998) |
| galvanic skin response | A change in electrical resistance of the skin, occurring in emotion and in certain other conditions. (12 Dec 1998) |
| galvanic threshold | The minimal strength of an electrical stimulus of indefinite duration that is able to cause excitation of a tissue, e.g., muscle or nerve. See: chronaxie. Synonym: galvanic threshold. Origin: rheo-+ G. Basis, a base (05 Mar 2000) |
