Wild type


 
 

In biology, a wild type is one of the major genotypes of a species that occur in nature by evolution, in contrast to induced mutations or artificial cross-breeding. Wild type is also used for single genes (wild type alleles) (as opposed to induced mutant alleles).

Genotype: The genotype is the specific genetic makeup (the specific genome) of an individual, usually in the form of DNA. It codes for the phenotype of that individual....

Species: In biology, the most commonly used definition of species was first coined by Ernst Mayr. Species are "groups of actually or potentially interbreeding natural populations which are reproductively isolated from other such groups" (however, see other definitions of species below)....

Nature: :For alternative meanings, see nature (disambiguation)....
