QTLs underlie continuous traits (those traits which vary continuously, e.g. height) as opposed to discrete traits (traits that have two or several character...

elaborated in the last edition of The Origin of Species, many complex traits evolved from earlier traits that had served different functions. By trapping air,...

Mendelian traits in humans are human traits that are substantially influenced by Mendelian inheritance. Most – if not all – Mendelian traits are also influenced...
