The phrase "average phenotype of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in scientific or biological contexts when discussing the typical characteristics or traits of a particular group or species.
Example: "The average phenotype of the population showed significant variation in height and coloration."
Alternatives: "typical traits of" or "mean characteristics of".
To mimic a situation with selective genotyping, marker genotypes were stored only from parents (generations 5001 and 5002) and individuals of the phenotypically best (based on the average phenotype of the 100 training sibs) 30 of 100 families in the last generation (generation 5003).
As the gene variant becomes more common, the average phenotype of a population changes, resulting in adaptation.
The average phenotype of the genes tends to change in a graded fashion from center to edge of the lens, leading to a change in refractive index throughout the lens.
This implies that quantitative trait loci (QTL) can be defined as mean-controlling genes, as they affect the observed average phenotype of specific genotype.
Environmental change tends to move the average phenotype of well-adapted populations further from its optimal value and thereby to reduce mean fitness.
Breeders do not worry about quantifying how well they can predict an individual's phenotype because they are interested in predicting genotypes and thereby the average phenotype of progeny.
The differences between the average phenotypes of RILs that harbor the A. magna allele of this marker compared with those that harbor the A. ipaënsis one are striking.
Several statistical methods were used to predict the average phenotypes of offspring of animals in the testing set, i.e., first-generation performance.
Among the 34 = 81 possible genotypes, we obtained information (i.e. an estimate of the average phenotype) for 77 genotypes, with between 1 and 38 phenotyped individuals per genotype.
Completely explained events had an average phenotype frequency of 48.2%, appearing in 241 out of 500 intermediate genomes.
In contrast, the events that had no significantly correlated SNPs had an average phenotype frequency of 7.6%, corresponding to only 36 out of 500 intermediate genomes, which was too few to find significant associations.
