heterozygote

noun ˌhɛt(ə)rə(ʊ)ˈzʌɪɡəʊthˌɛdərəˈzaɪɡoʊt

Genetics

An individual having two different alleles of a particular gene or genes, and so giving rise to varying offspring.
Compare with homozygote
Example sentencesExamples
- In the case of heterozygotes, one allele was randomly selected for each individual.
- Homozygotes and heterozygotes at individual sites were distinguished by their chromatographic patterns.
- The individual tested was a heterozygote, necessarily possessing a copy of each allele.
- For example, in inbred populations there may be very few heterozygotes but several different homozygotes.
- In a population with variation on both sex chromosomes, one does not know which sex chromosome carries a specific allele in a heterozygote of the heterogametic sex.

Example sentencesExamples
