Let's say: a drosophila melanogaster line is bred in a lab, which has a phenotypic variation of interest resulting from the wingless gene (wg1) . Firstyly: how you would go about identifying SNP variants in this gene? and Secondly: what method could you use to eliminate the possibility that this phenotype results from other gene regulatory elements?
Gene Interactions
When the expression of a single trait is influenced by two or more different non-allelic genes, it is termed as genetic interaction. According to Mendel's law of inheritance, each gene functions in its own way and does not depend on the function of another gene, i.e., a single gene controls each of seven characteristics considered, but the complex contribution of many different genes determine many traits of an organism.
Gene Expression
Gene expression is a process by which the instructions present in deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) are converted into useful molecules such as proteins, and functional messenger ribonucleic (mRNA) molecules in the case of non-protein-coding genes.
