adj.半合子的

Hemizygosity refers to having only one copy of a particular gene, as opposed to the usual two copies in diploid organisms.
单体性是指在二倍体生物中只有一条特定基因，而不是通常的两条。
The individual is hemizygous for the recessive trait, meaning they have one normal and one mutated allele.
这个人对于隐性特征是单体，意味着他们有一个正常的等位基因和一个突变的等位基因。
In humans, certain genetic disorders can be hemizygous, like Duchenne muscular dystrophy, where boys inherit only one functioning copy of the dystrophin gene.
在人类中，某些遗传疾病可能是单体性的，比如杜氏肌营养不良症，男孩只继承到一个功能正常的 dystrophin 基因。
A person with hemizygous X-linked color blindness carries only one functional X chromosome for vision.
色盲患者中，如果X染色体上的颜色视觉基因单体，那么他们就只携带一个能视的X染色体。
Animals with sex-determining chromosomes, like males in some reptiles, can be hemizygous for the male-determining gene.
性别决定染色体的动物，如某些爬行动物中的雄性，对于决定雄性的基因是单体的。
Hemizygous markers are often used in genetic mapping, as they provide a clear distinction between individuals with different gene copies.
单体标记常用于遗传图谱研究，因为它们能清楚区分不同基因拷贝的个体。
Due to a chromosomal abnormality, the patient is hemizygous for both the wild-type and mutant versions of the gene, leading to a complex medical condition.
由于染色体异常，患者对野生型和突变型的基因都是单体，导致了复杂的医疗状况。
The rare breed of dogs with Piebald syndrome is hemizygous for the mutated gene that causes the distinctive white patches.
白化斑犬种是罕见的单体性，携带导致独特白色斑块的突变基因。
Hemizygosity in plants can affect traits such as seed color or leaf shape, making it an interesting subject for plant breeders.
植物的单体性可能影响种子颜色或叶片形状等性状，使其成为植物育种者感兴趣的研究对象。
Scientists studying genetic diversity in wildlife populations often look for hemizygous individuals, as they can shed light on unique genetic information.
研究野生动物种群遗传多样性的科学家常常关注单体个体，因为他们能揭示独特的遗传信息。
