About this document
Epistasis: Gene Interactions in Evolution by AlexaPazPapePrado is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses the concept of epistasis, or gene interactions, and how it is fundamentally important for understanding genetic systems and evolution. It reviews different definitions and uses of epistasis, and how recent advances in functional genomics and systems biology are providing new ways to study epistasis and gene networks on a large scale. Understanding epistasis is key to elucidating genetic pathways, the basis of natural variation and disease, and models of evolutionary change.
