    Introduction

    Two general principles in the relationship between genes and characters were already formulated in the 1930's. These principles are: (1) Every gene influences all of the traits of an organism, although its eff...

    Conclusion

    The individual development of the multicellular organisms is, as a final result, a matter of the growing heterogenization of the embryo, its division into complicating morphofunctional systems and specializing...

    Nuclear-Cytoplasmic Interactions. The Basis for the Regulation of Gene Activity

    As suggested by Morgan (1937) differential activity of nuclei is caused by differences in cytoplasmic environment; therefore, the first step of differentiation depends upon the nature of the cytoplasm in vario...

    Genetic Heterogeneity and the Establishment of Tissue Systems During Development

    The significance of trait expression at the tissue level during morphogenesis has already been demonstrated for the case of the early morphogenetic process of primary embryonic induction. The presumptive neuro...

    The Organization of Systems Which Control Differential Gene Expression

    Analysis of the genetic mechanisms of control of development is connected with the problem of regulation of gene activity. Naturally, cell specialization is due to an organized sequence of function of various ...

    Differential Activity of Genes as a Basis for Cell Differentiation

    The realization of hereditary information during ontogenesis is a multi-stage process and includes various levels of regulation—cell, tissue, and organism. A large number of genes act at each step of the devel...

    The Phenomenon of Allelic Exclusion

    In the previous chapters the various degrees of phenotypic expression of maternal and paternal biochemical traits were discussed. However, extreme cases are known when one of the parental characteristics is no...

    Functional-Genetic Mosaicism in Cell Population

    One of the important results of nuclear-cytoplasmic interactions is the realization of the complex processes which caused cell determination—the main event in ontogenesis. In discussing cell determination in h...

    Genetic Regulation of Ontogenesis on the Organismal Level

    As mentioned by Smalgausen (1938) “…the endocrine system is the basic integrating factor of the definite stages of morphogenesis.” The nervous system acts, in part, in the same direction. Actually, the conditi...

    The Realization of Differential Gene Activity on the Post-Transcriptional, Translational, and Post-Translational Levels

    Trait realization on the molecular level undergoes a number of stages, from transcription to RNA maturation and transport, then translation and, finally, the post- translational level.
