Definition of polygenic in English:

polygenic

adjective ˌpɒlɪˈdʒɛnɪkˌpälēˈjenik

Genetics

Relating to or determined by polygenes.

the theory of polygenic inheritance
Example sentencesExamples
- Monogenic and polygenic inheritance of adult resistance under controlled and field conditions has been reported in the literature.
- In the Belgian tervuren and sheepdog, epilepsy is highly heritable with a polygenic mode of inheritance, though apparently influenced by a single autosomal recessive locus of large effect.
- The technique is intended to integrate Mendelian transmission genetics, allelic frequency, and penetrance with the patterns of covariance expected in polygenic inheritance.
- The most common cause of genetic disorders is multifactorial or polygenic inheritance.
- In contrast, acoustical communication has been suggested to have a polygenic mode of inheritance.

Derivatives

polygenically

adverb

Genetics

The genes involved could act with varying degrees of penetrance, or polygenically contribute to disease vulnerability with no single gene being wholly responsible.
Example sentencesExamples
- Quantitative trait loci analyses have recently been initiated to map some of these polygenically controlled traits.
- As polygenically inherited resistance is more stable, utilization of this type of resistance is likely to provide much more durable control of blackleg.
- Bone density is suggested to be multifactorially regulated and polygenically determined.
- The evolutionary ramifications of such a mosaic of temporal and spatial gene expression patterns on direct and correlated response to selection in complex, polygenically controlled traits could be considerable.

Origin

1940s: from Greek polugenēs 'of many kinds' + -ic.
