Allele s have identity by type IBT when they have the same phenotype phenotypic effect , or if applied to a variation in the composition of DNA such as a Single nucleotide polymorphism when they have the same DNA sequence . Alleles that are identical by type fall into two groups those that are identical by descent IBD because they arose from the same allele in an earlier generation and those that are non identical by descent NIBD because they arose from separate mutation s. NIBD can also be identical by state IBS though, if they share the same mutational expression just not origin . Parent offspring pairs share 50 of their genes IBD, and monozygotic twins share 100 IBD.

In population genetics , fixation is the change in a gene pool from a situation where there exist at least two variants of a particular gene allele to a situation where only one of the alleles remains. The term can refer to a gene in general or particular nucleotide position in the DNA chain locus genetics locus . In the process of substitution , a previously non existent allele arises by mutation and undergoes fixation by Biological inheritance spreading through the population by random genetic drift and or positive Natural selection selection . Once the allele frequency frequency of the allele is at 100 , i.e. being the only gene variant present in any member, it is said to be fixed in the population. Similarly, genetic differences between taxa are said to have been fixed in each species . Probability of fixation Under conditions of genetic drift alone, every finite set of genes or alleles has a coalescent point at which all descendants converge to a single ancestor i.e. they coalesce . This fact can be used to derive the rate of gene fixation of a neutral allele that is, one not under any form of selection for a population of varying size provided that it is finite and nonzero . Because the effect of natural selection is stipulated to be negligible, the probability at any given time that an allele will ultimately become fixed at its locus is simply its frequency math p math in the population at that time. For example, if a population includes allele A with frequency equal to 20 , and allele a with frequency equal to 80 , there is an 80 chance that after an infinite number of generations a will be fixed at the locus assuming genetic drift is the only operating evolutionary force . For a diploid population of size N and neutral mutation rate math mu math , the initial frequency of a novel mutation is simply 1 2 N , and the number of new mutations per generation is math 2N mu math . Since the fixation rate is the rate of novel neutral mutation multiplied by their pr ... more details

unreferenced date January 2012 Codominance refers to a relationship between two alleles of a gene. It occurs when the contributions of both alleles genes are clearly visible and do not overpower each other in the phenotype. This also means that the genotype is heterozygous. For instance, in the ABO system , the I sup A sup and I sup B sup alleles are co dominant in producing the AB blood group phenotype, in which both A and B type antigen s are made. Another example occurs at the locus for the HBB Beta globin component of hemoglobin , where the three molecular phenotypes of Hb sup A sup Hb sup A sup , Hb sup A sup Hb sup S sup , and Hb sup S sup Hb sup S sup are all equally detectable by protein electrophoresis . For most gene loci at the molecular level, both alleles are expressed co dominantly, because both are Transcription genetics transcribed into RNA . Co dominance and incomplete or semi dominance are not the same thing. For example, in some plant species, white and red spotted flowers may be the product of codominance between the red allele for the gene and the white allele for the gene co dominance on the pigment level, no dominance on the color level , or the result of one allele that produces the usual amount of red pigment and another non functional allele that produces no pigment, so as to produce a dilute, intermediate pink color no dominance at either level . gallery gallery Category Classical genetics de Kodominanz es Codominancia eu Kodominantzia fr Codominance ko it Codominanza no Kodominans nds Kodominanz pl Kodominacja sk Kodominancia th zh ... more details

Haemophilia and colour blindness are the genetic disease due to X linked recessive allele giving their expression in human male is pseudodominance and in human female is dominance. Pseudodominance also observed in autosomal recessive condition in subsequent generations .This could happen in the case of loss of genetic material from one homolog bearing the dominant allele. The heterozygous condition is therefore lost at that particular locus and the recessive phenotype is revealed.

In population genetics , the Wahlund effect refers to reduction of heterozygosity in a population caused by subpopulation structure. Namely, if two or more subpopulations have different allele frequency allele frequencies then the overall heterozygosity is reduced, even if the subpopulations themselves are in a Hardy Weinberg equilibrium . The underlying causes of this population subdivision could be geographic barriers to gene flow followed by genetic drift in the subpopulations. The Wahlund effect was first documented by the Swedish geneticist Sten Wahlund in 1928. Simplest example Suppose there is a population math P math , with allele frequencies of A and a given by math p math and math q math respectively math p q 1 math . Suppose this population is split into two equally sized subpopulations, math P 1 math and math P 2 math , and that all the A alleles are in subpopulation math P 1 math and all the a alleles are in subpopulation math P 2 math this could easily occur due to drift . Then, there are no heterozygotes, even though the subpopulations are in a Hardy Weinberg equilibrium. Case of two alleles and two subpopulations To make a slight generalization of the above example, let math p 1 math and math p 2 math represent the allele frequencies of A in math P 1 math and math P 2 math respectively and math q 1 math and math q 2 math likewise represent a . Let the allele frequency in each population be different, i.e. math p 1 ne p 2 math . Suppose each population is in an internal Hardy Weinberg equilibriums , so that the genotype frequency genotype frequencies AA , Aa and aa are p sup 2 sup , 2 pq , and q sup 2 sup respectively for each population. Then the heterozygosity math H math in the overall population is given by the mean of the two math H math math 2p 1q 1 2p 2q 2 over 2 math math p 1q 1 p 2q 2 math math p 1 1 p 1 p 2 1 p 2 math which is always smaller than math 2p 1 p math math 2pq math unless math p 1 p 2 math Generalization The Wahlund effect may be ... more details
