An efficient means of representing genetic phenotype data is presented. This method employs 'phenotype elements', which are trinary indicators of observed traits. Each phenotype element describes phenotypic information such as an individual's reaction to an antiserum, and assumes a value of positive, negative or unknown. A genotype-phenotype table allows calculation of possible genotypes which correspond to a given phenotype. Applications of the technique are discussed.
提出了一种表示遗传表型数据的有效方法。该方法采用“表型元素”,它们是观察到的性状的三进制指标。每个表型元素描述诸如个体对抗血清的反应等表型信息,并取值为阳性、阴性或未知。基因型-表型表允许计算与给定表型相对应的可能基因型。讨论了该技术的应用。
