In Generalized Transduction, Viruses Carry Random DNA Sequences from One

question 60

True/False

In generalized transduction, viruses carry random DNA sequences from one cell to another.


Definitions:

Overdominance

A genetic phenomenon where the heterozygote genotype has a higher fitness or survival advantage than either of the homozygote genotypes.

Underdominance

A genetic condition in which heterozygotes have lower fitness than either homozygote, leading to a tension between alleles that can result in decreased population stability.

QTL Association Studies

Research aimed at identifying quantitative trait loci (QTL) that are associated with specific phenotypic traits by examining the genetic linkage with markers.

Genetically Divergent Populations

Populations that show significant genetic differences from each other, often due to adaptations to different environments or evolutionary pressures.
