Heritability - Wikipedia
Heritability measures the fraction of phenotype variability that can be attributed to genetic variation. This is not the same as saying that this fraction of an individual phenotype is caused by genetics.
Heritability | Definition, Equation, & Examples | Britannica
2024年10月16日 · Heritability, amount of phenotypic (observable) variation in a population that is attributable to individual genetic differences. Heritability is applied in behavior genetics and quantitative genetics, where heritability estimates can be calculated using statistical methods.
What is heritability? - MedlinePlus
Heritability is a measure of how well differences in people’s genes account for differences in their traits. Traits can include characteristics such as height, eye color, and intelligence, as well as disorders like schizophrenia and autism spectrum disorder.
Estimating Trait Heritability | Learn Science at Scitable - Nature
Heritability is a concept that summarizes how much of the variation in a trait is due to variation in genetic factors. Often, this term is used in reference to the resemblance between parents and...
