    GlossaryGenotype-Phenotype Correlations

    relationship between genes and observable traits

    Genotype-Phenotype Correlations refer to the relationship between an individual's genetic makeup (genotype) and their observable traits (phenotype). For example, in the context of hair, certain genotypes might be linked to traits like hair color, texture, or susceptibility to conditions like alopecia. Understanding these correlations helps scientists predict how genetic variations can manifest as physical characteristics or health conditions.
