monigeenisistä
Monigeenisistä refers to a biological concept related to traits controlled by multiple genes. Unlike monogenic traits, which are determined by a single gene, polygenic traits are influenced by the additive effects of alleles at several different gene loci. This means that the inheritance pattern is more complex, and the resulting phenotype often exhibits a continuous range of variation rather than distinct categories.
Examples of polygenic traits in humans include height, skin color, and susceptibility to many common diseases
The study of polygenic traits is crucial in understanding complex human characteristics and diseases. Techniques like
