Gene expression results in the production of a particular phenotypic character. Organisms with the same genotype may have different phenotypes in different environments. For example, two plants may be genotypically short, but if one is grown under conditions of poor light, it will become etiolated and hence taller than the other. Organisms with the same genotype may also show different phenotypes if the penetrance of the gene differs. On the other hand, organisms with different genotypes may have the same phenotype if each contains a dominant gene : in the same environment the homozygous organism AA is phenotypically identical to the heterozygous Aa in respect of gene A. 2, record 7, English, - phenotypic%20expression

The dominant lethal test is based on the preimplantation loss of eggs or on the formation of dead embryonic implants following the injection of mutagens into a male or female mouse at a specific time before mating(Bateman and Epstein, 1971). Dominant lethal tests assume that a single mutation has occurred in the eggs or sperm, which is lethal to the embryo and heterozygous at the affected locus. 2, record 21, English, - dominant%20lethal%20test

Le test de létalité dominante a tout d'abord été utilisé avec succès pour mesurer les effets mutagènes des radiations ionisantes par W. Russel et al. [...] puis par Bateman. Il a depuis lors été étendu à d'autres mammifères tels que le rat et le hamster. Dans sa forme initiale, il consiste tout d'abord à croiser les animaux préalablement traités (l'un ou l'autre sexe ou les deux) en repérant exactement le moment de la fécondation par une technique adéquate qui dépend de l'espèce animale en cause. Les femelles sont ensuite sacrifiées au cours de la seconde moitié de la période de grossesse à un moment judicieusement choisi et toujours le même. On relève ensuite le nombre d'embryons en vie et le nombre de corpora lutea de grossesse qui correspond en règle générale, au nombre d'ovules effectivement fécondés. On note ensuite le nombre de déciduomes qui correspond à la mortalité après implantation intra-utérine des jeunes embryons. Ce relevé peut être complété par l'évaluation de la mortalité tardive au cours de la seconde partie de la grossesse. 1, record 21, French, - test%20de%20l%C3%A9talit%C3%A9%20dominante
