The phrase "average phenotypes of" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in scientific or academic contexts when discussing the typical characteristics or traits of a particular group or population.
Example: "The study focused on the average phenotypes of the plant species under varying environmental conditions."
Alternatives: "typical traits of" or "mean characteristics of".
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.
The contribution of A. magna alleles for the rust resistance-related traits was evaluated by calculating the average phenotypes of the homozygote plants for the A. magna allele vs. the average phenotype of those homozygote for the A. ipaënsis allele.
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.
This new term, cov i (ϕ o, Ω ) ¯, describes the population average of the covariance, within an individual, between the average phenotype of that individual's offspring (ϕ o ) and the individual's contribution to population growth.
Out of ten plants, three plants were chosen for the microarray analysis based on typical, average phenotype of HC-Pro plants (see Figure 1) and on average transgene HC-Pro expression (Additional file 1).
