A trait like an arm is encoded in many genes, which cooperate with one another to build it.
"There were probably small changes in many genes which makes it much more difficult to pin down".
Flowering time is controlled by many genes, which are expressed or suppressed in close interaction with environmental factors such as day length and temperature.
The discovery of so many genes which all play a small part in the disease may help explain why the disorder manifests itself differently in individuals.
To date, biotechnology has not yet developed salt tolerant cultivars for agriculture use (Himabindu et al. 2016) probably for the reason that salt tolerance is a complex trait determined by many genes which interact strongly with environmental factors (Munns et al. 2012).
Additionally, eye color is considered a subset of coloring, and coat color definitions often include standards for the eyes as many genes which control eye color will also affect the coat color.
Leptin causes alterations in the expression of many genes which inhibit adipocyte differentiation.
Many genes which are associated with root nodule development and activity in the model legume Medicago truncatula have been described.
For example, the GO code 'mitochondrial genes' has many genes which belong to mitochondria but may not be functionally related.
SFN-mediated HDAC inhibition activity causes a wide range of epigenetic alterations in many genes which are actively involved in malignant progression of cancer cells.
The two galactose induction experiments (experiment E2 vs. E3) were conducted in an experimentally similar way, yet many genes which were up-regulated in one experiment were down-regulated in the other and vice versa (supplemental data).
