Sentence examples for linked traits from inspiring English sources

Selection for optimal character combinations, generating genetic correlation between suites of linked traits, is also known as correlational selection (Sinervo and Svensson 2002).

In 1911, after observing that linked traits could on occasion be inherited separately, Thomas Hunt Morgan suggested that "crossovers" can occur between linked genes, where one of the linked genes physically crosses over to a different chromosome.
