Pter (locus)
In genetics, a locus (: loci) is a specific, fixed position on a chromosome where a particular gene or genetic marker is located. Each chromosome carries many genes, with each gene occupying a different position or locus; in humans, the total number of protein-coding genes in a complete haploid set of 23 chromosomes is estimated at 19,000–20,000. Genes may possess multiple variants known as alleles, and an allele may also be said to reside at a particular locus. Diploid and polyploid cells whose chromosomes have the same allele at a given locus are called homozygous with respect to that locus, while those that have different alleles at a given locus are called heterozygous. The ordered list of loci known for a particular genome is called a gene map. Gene mapping is the process of determining the specific locus or loci responsible for producing a particular phenotype or biological trait. Association mapping, also known as "linkage disequilibrium mapping", is a method of mapping ...

This is a list of common affixes used when scientifically naming species, particularly extinct species for whom only their scientific names are used, along with their derivations. *a-, an-: ''Pronunciation'': /ə/, /a/, /ən/, /an/. ''Origin'': (''a, an-''). ''Meaning'': a prefix used to make words with a sense opposite to that of the root word; in this case, meaning "without" or "-less". This is usually used to describe organisms without a certain characteristic, as well as organisms in which that characteristic may not be immediately obvious. *:Examples: ''Anurognathus'' ("tailless jaw"); ''Apus'' ("footless"); '' Apteryx'' ("wingless"); ''Pteranodon'' ("wings without teeth"); Anura ("tailless"); '' Anophthalmus'' ("eyeless") *-acanth, acantho-: ''Pronunciation'': /eɪkænθ/, /eɪkænθoʊ/. ''Origin'': (''ákantha''). ''Meaning'': spine. *:Examples: '' Acanthodes'' ("spiny base"); ''Acanthostega'' ("spine roof"); coelacanth ("hollow spine"); ''Acrocanthosaurus'' ("high- ...
