What is the condition whereby a trait is determined by three or more alleles called?

The condition whereby a trait is determined by three or more alleles is called multiple allelism. Multiple alleles refer to the presence of more than two alleles of a gene within a population. This can result in various combinations of traits and phenotypes.


When than two alleles control a trait?

The presence of more than two alleles that control a trait is called multiple allele. An example of this is the group gene of ABO blood that has three alleles.


What is it called when more than one set of genes controls a trait?

yes it could......... when it happens its called polygenic inheritance


More than one pair of alleles controls a trait?

It isn't genome the definition of genome is a map of the location of individual genes on every chromosome of an individual. It's multiple alleles- having more than two alleles that control a trait. PS- I got this information from my text book:)


When more than two different alleles control a trait?

This phenomenon is known as multiple allelism, where there are more than two different variations of a gene (alleles) that can affect a single trait. In this case, individuals can inherit one of several possible alleles for the trait. Examples include the ABO blood group system in humans, where there are three alleles (IA, IB, i) that determine a person's blood type.


What is the likelihood of inheriting a genetic trait with more than two alleles, and how does the presence of multiple alleles impact the expression of the trait?

The likelihood of inheriting a genetic trait with more than two alleles is rare. When a trait has multiple alleles, it can result in a wider range of possible expressions of that trait. This can lead to more variation in the phenotype among individuals who inherit different combinations of alleles for that trait.


What is a trait controlled by three or more alleles have?

multiple alleles


The two or more related genes that control a trait are known as?

alleles


What are genes with three or more alleles called?

this makes no scientific sense. A gene (which determines a phenotypic trait) can only contain 2 alleles. However codominace allows for multiple alleles to be chosen from, but only 2 picked for a gene. Also, if multiple genes determine a phenotypic trait that's polygenic inheritance.


What are more than two alleles that exist in a population for a particular trait?

Multiple alleles


When a trait has more than two alleles how is the trait inherited?

When more than two alleles are involved in the inheritance of a trait, it is called polygenic inheritance. Many quantitative characters have polygenic inheritance. Inheritance of blood groups is an example of polygenic inheritance in human being.When more than two alleles are involved in the inheritance of a trait, it is called polygenic inheritance.

What is one difference between single gene trait and a polygenic trait?

Polygenic traits result in more variation because so many more alleles are involved in the process of reproduction.
