| | Heterozygote - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Heterozygosity can also refer to the fraction of loci within an individual that are heterozygous. | | | If the test is sensitive enough, the heterozygote has the phenotype of both parents: when a person who is homozygous for the A blood type gene marries a person who is homozygous for the B blood type gene, they produce heterozygous children who express both A and B antibodies (see, co-dominance). | | | When an organism is referred to as a heterozygote or as being heterozygous for a specific gene, it means that the organism carries a different version of that gene on each of the two corresponding chromosomes. |

| | Heterozygote Advantage Summary - Heterozygote Advantage Information |
| | Inbreeding is the practice of repeatedly crossing a single variety of organism with itself, in order to develop a more uniform variety. | | | In this hypothesis, heterozygotes are superior to the homozygous recessive condition, but not the homozygous dominant condition. | | | The other explanation for heterosis is that the heterozygote is superior to both homozygotes. |

| | She is a carrier for CF but has no signs or symptoms of the disease. | | | For example, a woman who is a heterozygote for cystic fibrosis (CF) carries the CF gene on one of her chromosomes number 7 and the normal paired (non-CF) gene at the same position on her other chromosome 7. | | | A manifesting heterozygote is a person who manifests signs or symptoms of what is usually a recessive condition and ordinarily only is evident in someone who has two copies of the gene. |

| | Heterozygote advantage - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Heterozygote advantage seems a likely explanation for this allele, which conveys no benefit at all to the homozygous recessive individual. | | | This selection favoring the heterozygote is one of the mechanisms that maintain polymorphism and help to explain some kinds of genetic variability. | | | Even today, approximately one in twenty-five people of European descent is a carrier for the disease, and one in every 2500 children born is affected by cystic fibrosis. |

| | In addition, other factors, such as heterozygote advantage, may increase the fraction of the alleles retained in the population, even under conditions where the basis for the advantage is not fully understood. | | | For example, in situations where a heterozygote has a reduced fertility because of a pericentric inversion, the two homozygotes may be favored. | | | The heterozygotes do not exhibit the recessive sickle cell disease, but are resistant to malaria, and thus form the healthy population that is responsible for most of the reproduction. |

| | However, in many systems, recessive alleles occur primarily as loss of function mutations derived from "wild type" strains by treatment with radiation or other mutagens. | | | If one allele is completely dominant over the other, the phenotype of the heterozygote will be the same as the dominant homozygous phenotype, with the alternative phenotype occurring only in individuals who are homozygous for the recessive allele. | | | In classical genetics, this was further complicated by lack of knowledge about anything other than the phenotypes associated with the dominant and recessive traits. |
