| random mating | Totally haphazard mating with no regard to the genetic makeup (genotype) of the mate so that any sperm has an equal chance of fertilizing any egg. This rarely, if ever, occurs but the concept is impoortant in population genetics. Also called panmixus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| random mating equilibrium | <genetics> In a population containing the genotypes of AA, aa, and Aa, the frequency of AA will be p2, the frequency of aa will be q2, and the frequency of Aa will be 2 pq at equilibrium, where p is the frequency of A and q is the frequency of a. By the Hardy-Weinberg law, a ramdonly-mating population will eventually reach these frequencies and be at this equilibrium as long as there are no selection pressures on the population. (09 Oct 1997) |
| mating | The pairing of male and female for the purpose of reproduction. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mating isolate | A population separated from its neighbors by any means so that all or most matings occur within the population group. (05 Mar 2000) |
| mating type gene | Genes that, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae specify into which of the two mating types (a and _) a particular cell falls. Only unlike mating type haploids will fuse. The interest derives from the way in which mating type is switched, the existing gene is removed and a new gene, derived from a (silent) master copy elsewhere in the genome is spliced in. Later this gene will in its turn be replaced by a new copy of the old gene, also derived from a silent master. The a and _ genes code for pheromones that affect cells of the opposite mating type. Similar mating type genes are known from other yeasts and the switching mechanism (cassette mechanism) may be used more generally. (18 Nov 1997) |
| nonrandom mating | Selection of a mate with preference for (or aversion to) a particular genotype, i.e., nonrandom mating. Synonym: nonrandom mating. (05 Mar 2000) |
| American Red Cross | The national Red Cross society of the United States, established by Congress to assist in caring for the sick and wounded, serving as a communications link between members of the U.S. Armed forces and their families, conducting disaster relief and prevention programs, and furnishing other humanitarian services, the largest of which is a network of regional blood centres providing blood and blood products. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anatomy, cross-sectional | Descriptive anatomy based on three-dimensional imaging of the body, organs, and structures using a series of computer multiplane sections, displayed by transverse, coronal, and sagittal analyses. It is essential to accurate interpretation by the radiologist of such techniques as ultrasonic diagnosis, magnetic resonance imaging, and computed tomography. (12 Dec 1998) |
| back cross | <genetics> A crossing of a heterozygous organism and one of its homozygous parents. (09 Oct 1997) |
| blue cross | A prepaid health insurance plan for hospital costs and related services. It usually excludes physicians' services (which are covered under blue shield). (12 Dec 1998) |
| red cross | An international agency providing various humanitarian services. (12 Dec 1998) |
| collision cross-section | <radiobiology> Effective surface area of a particle when it collides with another, describes probability of collisions between the two particles. (09 Oct 1997) |
| cross | 1. Any figure in the shape of a cross formed by two intersecting lines. Synonym: crux. Synonym: crux of heart. 3. A method of hybridization or the hybrid so produced. Origin: F. Croix, L. Crux (05 Mar 2000) |
| cross agglutination | Agglutination by antibodies specific for minor (group) antigens common to several microorganisms, each of which possesses its own major specific antigen. Synonym: cross agglutination. (05 Mar 2000) |
