| fushi tarazu gene | <molecular biology> A gene found in the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. Normal fruit fly embryos look like a series of stacked discs, which are called segments. Each segment eventually develops into specific adult fly structures (wings, antennae, legs, eyes, etc.) Flies which have a mutant form of the ftz gene are missing every other segment. (05 Jan 1998) |

| fusion gene | <molecular biology> A hybrid gene created by joining portions of two different genes (to produce a new protein) or by joining a gene to a different promoter (to alter or regulate gene transcription). (05 Jan 1998) |
| linked gene | <genetics> Genes and / or markers that are so closely associated on the chromosome that they are inherited together in 80% or more of cases. (14 Oct 1997) |
