Example sentences for: genotype

How can you use “genotype” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • Hansen and Wagner [ 10 ] independently suggested that the relative frequency of synergistic and antagonistic interactions depends on the distance of the genotype in question from the optimum, and thus from the center of the cluster.

  • In these assays, performance was quantified by directly competing the evolved genotypes with the ancestors, and in nearly every case the evolved genotype was the superior competitor.

  • More losses of fitness were found, which suggests some specialization based on resource concentration, but replicates of the same genotype were too inconsistent to be considered reliable (V.S.

  • However, despite association of the factor V G1691A (factor V Leiden) and prothrombin (factor II) G20210A mutations with venous thromboembolism and myocardial infarction [ 10 11 ] , neither mutation is strongly associated with risk of stroke [ 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 ] . Although a study of British adults found elevated levels of serum homocysteine to be associated with an increased risk of stroke [ 19 ] , a case-control study of a common polymorphism (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase [MTHFR] T677C) that results in increased serum homocysteine concentrations found no difference between patients with stroke and controls in either genotype or allele frequency [ 20 ] . Because antiplatelet agents with different mechanisms of action can bring about significant reductions in stroke risk, several platelet receptor genes have been tested as candidate stroke susceptibility genes [ 21 22 ] . To date, however, no compelling evidence for an association between any platelet receptor gene polymorphism and risk of stroke has been found.

  • Methods have been developed that can yield a profusion of information about the sources of experimental variation [ 7, 8] or, at a biological level, about the proportion of variation in expression profile attributable to biological factors such as sex or genotype [ 9].
