Genotype

Drosophila Paper Discussion Portion Discussion The hypothesis was supported during the experiment. We originally hypothesized that if parental strains of stock D. melanogaster were mated, the ratios of the phenotypes in the F1 generation would be completely random and follow the laws of segregation and independent assortment. Under such assumption, the 3 genes examined in this experiment would not be linked, and the final observed number of F1 flies with each phenotype would equal the expected…

Trade Name: Daklinza Generic Name: Daclatasvir Daklinza is a newly the Food and Drugs Administration (FDA) approved drug to treat patients with chronic hepatitis C genotype 3 infection.4 The company that markets the drug is Bristol-Myers Squibb, located in Princeton, New Jersey. The date of approval by the U.S FDA for the drug is July 24th, 2015. Although, Japan was the first country in the world to approve the drug , now the drug is being marketed in U.S, including northern and central…

are more effective depending on the genotype. A combination of Simeprevir (NS3/4 protease inhibitor) along with sofosbuvir (a nucleotide analogue, NS5B polymerase inhibitor), along with peginterferon and ribavirin rendered an SVR of 80% to 90% after 12 to 36 week of treatment. (Jack, 2015, p. 411). These medications were given in UK and a 12-week treatment was 22398 pound in sterling that is equivalent to 29,563.12 USD. Other medications for other genotypes are just as expensive. Treatment…

caused by GII strains, especially the GII.4 genotype (4, 19, 20). To improve reporting measures, the CDC and State partners have developed the CaliciNet reporting system and they determined that 73% of norovirus outbreaks from Oct. 2009 through May 2010 were from the GII.4 genotype (21). Norovirus outbreaks can occur at any point throughout the year but have been reported to be concentrated in the winter months (22, 23). Due to the dominance of the GII.4 genotype, it appears that epidemics are…

Heat stress is one of the major abiotic stresses affecting agriculture production worldwide which causes an array of physiological, biochemical and morphological changes in plants. Maize crop is unique among cereals on account of wider flexibility and adaptability in growing conditions, ranging from Kharif, Rabi and Spring seasons. Further, the response of plants to high temperature stress is reflected in apparent morphological traits like leaf firing, tassel blasting etc. The composite…

Some examples of these types of environmental conditions that affect the phenotypic frequencies include sunlight, soil composition, and dryness. All these can affect the genotype of the organism. An increase in the gene number and a variation in the environment can ultimately affect the overlap of the different types of genotypes and…

identify your partners and as well as your own phenotype and genotype. We did that by deeply observing our bodies and then determining whether we have the following traits. PTC, Darwin’s ear point, ear lobe attachment, hitchhiker’s thumb, widow’s peak, second finger shorter than fourth, bent little finger, mid digital hair, red green color blindness, and tongue rolling. We then made punnet squares by showing all the possible genotype and phenotype outcomes. Apart from…

There are mostly 2 copies of a gene at each gene location on the chromosome, one from each parent. Each copy is called an allele. Many homozygous genotypes parents were more closely related less genetically diverse. More heterozygous genotypes were distantly related more genetically diverse. We can use a punnett square to predict the probability of genotypes of offspring. How non-heritable traits affects me is I have hair on my arms and my dad…

Non-modifiable risk factors for chronic periodontitis involving genetic factors (36). People who are genotype positive for IL-1 (IL-1A and IL-1B) genes were found in one study of more than 100 patients to had higher levels of virulent bacterial species than those of genotype-negative patients. Additionally, genotype-positive patients were found to have higher counts of individual virulent bacterial species in pockets deeper than 6 mm, including T. forsythia (B. forsythus), P. gingivalis, and…

Introduction: Hardy Weinberg theory was an effective tool for recognizing the different genotypes from one generation to the next and each allele frequency. This theory notifies us by how Mendelian inheritance was the lead for all genetic variation and it can be used to follow Mendelian’s rules of segregation and the combination of alleles. Polymerase chain reaction was one of the essentials that is used in the Hardy Weinberg theory of genetic equilibrium which was used in determining the…
