Bioinformatics
Bioinformatics is an interdisciplinary field that develops methods and software tools for understanding biological data.
As an interdisciplinary field of science, bioinformatics combines computer science, statistics, mathematics, and engineering to analyze and interpret biological data.
Biophysics
Biophysics or biological physics is an interdisciplinary science that applies the approaches and methods of physics to study biological systems.
Biophysics covers all scales of biological organization, from molecular to organismic and populations.
Epistasis
The phenomenon where the effect of one gene(locus) is dependent on the presence of one or more 'modifier genes', the genetic background.
Modifier genes
A gene that alters the phenotypic expression of another gene
Locus
A fixed position on a chromosome, like the position of a gene or a marker(genetic marker)
Genetic marker
A gene or DNA sequence with a known location on a chromosome that can be used to identify individuals or species.
Epigenetic
The study of stable heritable changes in gene function that do not involve changes in the DNA sequence. (Changes in phenotype by environment)
