Polygenic Trait

0

A polygenic trait is a characteristic or condition controlled by multiple genes, each contributing to the overall phenotype. Unlike Mendelian traits, which are governed by a single gene, polygenic traits result from the combined effects of several genes, often leading to a continuous range of variation. These traits do not follow simple dominant or recessive inheritance patterns. Examples of polygenic traits include skin color, height, and eye color. The expression of polygenic traits is also influenced by environmental factors, making them more complex to study and predict. Polygenic traits are common in both humans and other organisms.
