re•ces•sive

(rɪˈsɛs ɪv)

adj. 1. tending to recede. 2. Genetics. a. pertaining to the allele of a gene pair whose effect is masked by the second allele when both are present in the same cell or organism. b. of or pertaining to the hereditary trait determined by such an allele. n. 3. Genetics. a. the recessive allele of a gene pair. b. the individual carrying such an allele. c. a recessive trait. Compare dominant (def. 6). [1665–75] re•ces′sive•ly, adv. re•ces′sive•ness, n.

re·ces·sive

(rĭ-sĕs′ĭv) Relating to the form of a gene that is not expressed as a trait in an individual unless two such genes are inherited, one from each parent. In an organism having two different genes for a trait, the recessive form is suppressed by its counterpart, or dominant, form located on the other of a pair of chromosomes. See more at inheritance. Compare dominant.

recessive

In genetics, used to describe a trait or gene that is expressed only when its paired trait or gene is identical.

[ri′ses·iv] (genetics) An allele that is not expressed phenotypically when present in the heterozygous condition. An organism homozygous for a recessive gene.

recessive


recessive

 [re-ses´iv] 1. tending to recede.2. in genetics, incapable of expression unless the responsible allele is carried by both members of a set of homologous chromosomes. See also gene" >recessive gene.3. an allele or trait that has this characteristic.

re·ces·sive

(rē-ses'iv), 1. Drawing away; receding. 2. In genetics, denoting a trait due to a particular allele or alleles at a single locus that does not manifest itself unless mutant alleles are present on both homologous chromosomes of a pair.

recessive

Of or relating to a trait that is expressed only when the determining allele is present in the homozygous condition.n. Genetics 1. A recessive allele or trait.2. An organism having a recessive trait.
re·ces′sive·ly adv.

recessive

Genetics A genetic trait that is not phenotypically expressed in a heterozygous or partially heterozygous cell, but rather only in a homozygous or hemizygous state. See Phenotype, Trait. Cf Dominant.

re·ces·sive

(rĕ-ses'iv) 1. Drawing away; receding. 2. genetics Denoting a trait due to a particular allele that does not manifest itself in the presence of other alleles that generate traits dominant to it.

recessive

Pertaining to an alternative form of a gene (ALLELE) that produces an effect only when carried by both members of the pair of homologous chromosomes (only when HOMOZYGOUS). People with heterozygous alleles for a condition are called carriers. A recessive gene has no effect in the presence of a DOMINANT allele either because of its inactivity or because of the absence of a product.

Recessive

Refers to an inherited characteristic or trait that is expressed only when two copies of the gene responsible for it are present.Mentioned in: Ataxia-Telangiectasia, Lipidoses, Phenylketonuria

re·ces·sive
