Epistasis

Epistasis logo #21000 Epistasis is when the effect of one gene depends on the presence of one or more `modifier genes` (genetic background). Similarly, epistatic mutations have different effects in combination than individually. It was originally a concept from genetics but is now used in biochemistry, population genetics, computational biology and evolutionary biolo.....

Epistasis

Epistasis logo #21841the collective action of multiple genes that interact during expression. A form of gene action, epistasis can either be additive or multiplicative in its effects on specific phenotypic traits.

Epistasis

Epistasis logo #20032Refers to the condition where the genotype at one locus has a direct effect on the expression (phenotype) of the gene pair/alleles at a different locus. Typically... the instructions at one gene locus masks or overrides the instructions at another. The locus that masks another is called the Epistatic locus. The locus that is masked, or overridden, ...

Epistasis

Epistasis logo #21448used to describe the situation where one gene's expression prevents the expression of another (e.g. you cannot determine whether an albino would have had black or brown hair, though these two traits are controlled by separate genes.)

epistasis

epistasis logo #10444Non-reciprocal interaction of non-allelic genes - for example when the expression of one gene masks the expression of another. Thus a gene that blocks development of an organ will mask the effects of genes that would modify the form of that organ had it been developed.
