Industry:Biotechnology
Information contained in a nucleotide base sequence in chromosomal DNA or RNA.
Industry:Biotechnology
Inheritance controlled by extrachromosomal (cytoplasmic) factors that are transmitted through the egg.
Industry:Biotechnology
Inheritance of measurable traits (height, weight, colour intensity, etc.) that depend on the cumulative action of many genes.
Industry:Biotechnology
Inhibition of the expression of a gene or set of coordinately regulated genes by the product of the gene or the product of one of the genes.

Industry:Biotechnology
Inhibition of transcription by preventing RNA polymerase from binding to the transcription initiation site: a repressed gene is "turned off."
Industry:Biotechnology
Insufficiency or absence of one or more usable forms of enzymatic, nutritional or environmental requirements, so that development, growth or physiological functions are affected.
Industry:Biotechnology
Interaction between genes at different loci, e.g., one gene suppresses the effect of another gene that is situated at a different locus. Suppressed genes are said to be hypostatic. Dominance is associated with members of allelic pairs, whereas epistasis is interaction among products of non-alleles.
