Gamma diversity (γ-diversity) is a measure of biodiversity. It refers to the total biodiversity over a large area or region. It is the total of α and β diversity. According to Whittaker (1972), gamma diversity is the richness in species of a range of habitats in a geographic area (e.g.,a landscape, an island) and it is consequent on the alpha diversity of the individual communities and the range of differentiation or beta diversity among them. Like alpha diversity, it is a quality which simply has magnitude, not direction and can be represented by a single number (a scalar). The internal relationship between alpha, beta and gamma diversity can be represented as
β = γ / α

Define the terms antibody immunoglobulin and gamma-globulin?
Gamma globulins are a class of globulins, identified by their position after serum protein electrophoresis. The most significant gamma globulins are immunoglobulins ("Igs"), more commonly known as antibodies, although some Igs are not gamma globulins, and some gamma globulins are not IgsRead more: gamma-globulin
