In this article we discuss about the expression of mutations. The expression of mutation can be observed only when there occurs a detectable and altered phenotype. If a mutation occurs from a most prevalent wild type to a mutant form, it is called forward mutation. In forward mutation, a second mutation may take place resulting in appearance of a wild [...]
In this article we will discuss about:- 1. Meaning of Mutations 2. Occurrence of Mutations 3. Expression. Meaning of Mutations: Inheritance is based on genes that are faithfully transmitted from generation to generation in microorganisms (in all organisms). Despite the biochemical mechanisms that facilitate such transmissions faithfully, sudden change in the sequence of nucleotide bases in genes can and do [...]
