Descriptor English: Polymorphism, Genetic
Descriptor Spanish: Polimorfismo Genético
Descriptor polimorfismo genético
Scope note: Ocurrencia regular y simultánea de dos o más genotipos discontinuos en una única población de apareamiento. El concepto incluye diferencias de genotipos que oscilan entre un único sitio nucleotídico (POLIMORFISMO DE NUCLEÓTIDO ÚNICO) a diferencias de grandes secuencias, visibles en los cromosomas.
