homozygosity

"This observation is remarkable because homozygosity for CCR5 delta32 is associated with high but not complete resistance to HIV-1," he noted.

When the leukemia relapsed after 7 months, the patient received allogeneic stem-cell transplantation with CD34-positive peripheral-blood stem cells from a donor who had been screened for homozygosity for the 32-bp deletion.

It is often the opposite process of inbreeding depression, which increases homozygosity.

It is often the opposite process of inbreeding depression, which increases homozygosity.

Hybridity IV 2006

In general, inbreeding will tend to increase the homozygosity of a population, like positive assortment.

This happens because, given enough time, any finite population will eventually become homozygous through drift (though if the population is large, the approach to homozygosity will be slow.)

The individual snakes were too much alike—high in homozygosity, low in variety of alleles—to be capable of much adaptive flexibility.

Inbreeding increases the chance of homozygosity, by pairing family-carried alleles with themselves.
