Sentence examples for denotes inheritance from inspiring English sources

Although epigenetics is often defined as heritable changes in gene expression, the use of the word heritable is confusing because in the case of epigenetics it only refers to stable changes in gene expression as cells divide during mitosis, which is very different from the normal use of the word heritable, which denotes inheritance of DNA variation from generation to generation.

The term Mendelian is often used to denote patterns of genetic inheritance similar to those described for traits in the garden pea by Gregor Mendel in the 1860s.

For any two nodes (i.e. two alleles) a and b in a descent graph, an inheritance path, denoted as p a, b, is a simple undirected path that links a and b.

Gene activity modifications may occasionally occur in a sperm or an egg cell and can be transferred to the next generation, denoted as transgenerational epigenetic inheritance (Youngson and Whitelaw 2008), a phenomenon that has been reported in a wide range of organisms (Jablonka and Raz 2009).

Some 22 rare and 44 solitary species denote diverse origins due to inheritance and cultivation.

All analyses were adjusted for age, sex, baseline waist circumference, baseline 2-h plasma glucose and study group; Correction for multiple hypothesis testing in single SNP analyses was performed by using FDR, denoted as q-value; aAdditive inheritance model for single SNP analyses; bDominant inheritance model for single SNP analyses.

The additive disease mode of inheritance was assumed and a single SNP genetic effect is denoted by β l.

Under Mendelian inheritance the probabilities are equal for all and equal zero otherwise, where Gχ denotes the set of offspring genotypes determined by χ.

We denote the loss rate as "γ" and the gain rate as "δ." Hence, the inheritance of epigenetic mark can be modeled using a two-state Markov chain.

Table  1 shows the genotypes of the hair color inheritance of Labrador Retrievers [ 8], in which each character represents a specific gene (denoted in pairs, of course).

The vector of selectors, which is called the inheritance vector, can get 22 n assignments and each assignment s defines a descent graph denoted by D[ s].
