Example sentences for: heterozygote

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

  • Population heterozygote advantage corresponds to RR > 1. Various formulations for relative risk (or odds ratio, used in case-control studies, such as [ 6 ] ) are used in studies of HLA heterozygosity and disease outcome, but in all cases the cutoff is one and a value larger or smaller than one (depending on the precise definition used) corresponds to population heterozygote advantage.

  • Figure 1shows the parameter regions in which population heterozygote advantage is expected and those in which the contrary is expected: homozygotes on average are more likely to have a favorable disease course.

  • However, if only one of the two reactions fail in a two reaction/ single allele per well format, a heterozygote could be miscalled as a homozygote.

  • We show that, depending on allele frequencies at the HLA locus of interest, population heterozygote advantage may occur when there is allele-specific overdominance, but may also occur under other conditions, including allele-specific underdominance.

  • Population heterozygote advantage (black) may be observed even when resistance is not overdominant, but only dominant, additive, recessive or only underdominant, as long as allele frequencies are sufficiently far toward the lower right of the parameter space (high diversity of resistant alleles and low diversity of susceptible alleles).
