| We must take into account that polygenes also are involved in this. |
| Because tolerance to drought is a complex phenotypic trait controlled by polygenes, it would not be useful to research any single gene or single class of genes to understand molecular mechanisms underlying drought tolerance. |
| This trend was not reversed, even in the case of an uneven distribution of polygenes. |
| Dormancy is a genetically complex trait controlled by polygenes with effects modified by the genetic background and environmental factors. |
| Gametic phase disequilibrium between the QTL and between the QTL and polygenes is modeled but polygenic variance is assumed constant. |
| There were considerable phenotypic variations for the fruit size-related traits in our F2 population, and the distribution of these traits suggests fruit size traits are controlled by polygenes. |
