Epistasis is generally defined as the interaction between two or more genes or their mRNA or protein products to influence a single trait.
I use this book as a reference for my own life (the gatherings, the meals, the puppet show, the Easter egg hunt), so it more than influences a single collection.
Our data are also in agreement with data which have shown that P can function to influence a single behavior by activating both PR dependent and GABA receptor mediated pathways [17], [36] [39].
Most QTL pairs have an impact on more than one trait, and the number of QTL positions that epistatically influence a single trait ranges from three to eight.
Maternal effects themselves can be heritable or environmentally induced; the latter can either influence a single reproductive event or span over several reproductive bouts [ 14].
For all imprinted genes that influence a single phenotype (that is, a single target of selection), regardless of how these genes influence the trait, the parental origin of expression should be the same within a sex.
Radiation, chemical toxins, or microbial products may selectively activate or inhibit general innate immune response pathways or selectively influence a single TLR pathway to influence the induction of lupus.
Our analysis also revealed cases of conditional pleiotropy, in which a locus itself independently influences a single trait, but through its interaction with a second locus, is associated with additional traits when a variant is present at the second locus.
A person with PA may have widely variable measures in GFR depending upon age, concomitant medication use and duration of aldosteronism, all of which can influence a single measure of GFR without reference to the laterality status.
The average number of genes significantly influencing a single RNAi knockdown phenotype is 40 and the number ranges from only five for the "cell size regulation" phenotype to 113 for the "RTK-Ras-ERK signaling decrease" phenotype (Table 1).
