| genetic load | <genetics> In general terms the decrease in fitness of a population (as a result of selection acting on phenotypes) due to deleterious mutations in the population gene pool. More specifically, the average number of recessive lethal mutations, in the heterozygous state, estimated to be present in the genome of an individual in a population. (18 Nov 1997) |
|---|---|
| genetic locus | <genetics> The position of a gene in a linkage map or on a chromosome. (18 Nov 1997) |
| genetic map | <genetics> A map of the relative positions of genetic loci on a chromosome, determined onthe basis of how often the loci are inherited together. Distance ismeasured in centimorgans (cM). (09 Oct 1997) |
| genetic mapping | Determination of the relative positions of genes on a DNA molecule (chromosome or plasmid) and of the distance, in linkage units or physical units, between them. (14 Nov 1997) |
| genetic marker | A gene which has an easily identifiable phenotype so that one can tell apart cells or individuals which have the gene and those which do not have it. Such a gene can also be used as a probe to mark cell nuclei or chromosomes so that they can easily be isolated or identified from other nuclei or chromosomes later. (09 Oct 1997) |
| genetic markers | A phenotypically recognizable genetic trait which can be used to identify a genetic locus, a linkage group, or a recombination event. (12 Dec 1998) |
| genetic material | A gene, a part of a gene, a group of genes, or fragments of many genes, on a molecule of DNA, a fragment of DNA, a group of DNA molecules, or fragments of many DNA molecules. Could refer to anything from a small fragment of DNA to the entire genome of an organism. (09 Oct 1997) |
| genetic model | A formalised conjecture about the behaviour of a heritable structure in which the component terms are intended to have literal interpretation as standard structures of empirical genetics. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic penetrance | The extent to which a genetically determined condition is expressed in an individual. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic polymorphism | The occurrence in the same population of multiple discrete alletic states of which at least two have high frequency (conventionally of 1% or more). (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic psychology | A science dealing with the evolution of behaviour and the relation to each other of the different types of mental activity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic recombination | <molecular biology> Formation of new combinations of alleles in offspring (viruses, cells or organisms) as a result of exchange of DNA sequences between molecules. It occurs naturally, as in crossing over between homologous chromosomes in meiosis or experimentally, as a result of genetic engineering techniques. (18 Nov 1997) |
| genetic screening | The process of testing individuals to find out if they carry genes for certain known genetic diseases, such as sickle cell anaemia. (09 Oct 1997) |
| genetic techniques | Chromosomal, biochemical, intracellular, and other methods used in the study of genetics. (12 Dec 1998) |
| genetic testing | Identifying foetuses or infants afflicted with hereditary diseases or conditions, and carriers of recessive disorders by means of DNA analysis. See: DNA markers, familial screening, prenatal screening. Synonym: genetic testing. (05 Mar 2000) |
| genetic code |
Information carried by the DNA molecules that decides the physical traits of an offspring. The code fixes the pattern of amino acids that build body tissue proteins within a cell.

| genetic code |
The way in which the information carried by the DNA molecules determines the arrangement of amino acids in the proteins synthesized by the cells. Each of the 20 amino acids found in proteins is represented by 1 or more units of 3 consecutive nucleotide bases (ie, codons) in the mRNA and in the DNA from which the mRNA is derived. All living organisms and viruses use the same genetic code.

| genetic code |
Each amino acid building block of a protein is specified by the order of nucleotides (A,C,T and G) in the gene for that protein. Three adjacent nucleotides, called a codon, are required to specify one amino acid. The genetic code can be displayed in a table that translates each of the 64 possible triplet codons into an amino acid. There are 64 possible combinations resulting from having one of four nucleotides in each of three possible positions in the codon (4 X 4 X 4 = 64).
