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

Put another way, population heterozygote advantage may appear due to a combination of the two distinct mechanisms we defined in the Introduction: the protective or detrimental effects of particular alleles (R and S alleles in our model), and the effects of heterozygosity itself.
Population heterozygote advantage will be observed if the probability of a favorable outcome for heterozygotes is greater than the arithmetic mean of the probabilities of favorable outcomes for RR homozygotes and for SS homozygotes.
In contrast, we have shown that population heterozygote advantage depends on not only the effects of individual genotypes on disease outcome, but also on allele frequencies.
We selected 25 Arg +transformants and analyzed them by Southern blotting for integration of the UAU1 cassette into one of the two CaCET1 chromosomal loci to yield the heterozygote CaCET1/cacet1::UAU1 configuration depicted in Figure 1. Briefly, genomic DNA was isolated from the 25 Arg +strains, then digested with Sca I (which cuts neither CaCET1 nor UAU1 ). The digests were resolved by agarose gel-electrophoresis and transferred to membranes, which were probed with a radiolabeled DNA corresponding to the 5' segment of CaCET1 (probe A in Figure 1).
Although neither population heterozygote advantage nor allele-specific overdominance implies the other, the two phenomena are of course related.
