the characteristics shown in an individual of the genetic traits it inherited; also that which is shown as a result of environment and genes.

sex determination Sex determination by non-genetic means.

The observable physical or biochemical characteristics of an organism, as determined by both genetic makeup and environmental influences.

of or relating to or constituting a phenotype; "phenotypical profile"

Characteristics of an organism displayed regardless of genotype

Of, relating to, or constituting a detectable expression of the interaction of genotype and the environment; the visible expression of genotype.

Referring to the physical make-up of an individual, or the expression of a particular trait, such as skin color, that may vary between individuals of similar genetic make-up. See also: genotype

Refers to a plant's adaption to surrounding conditions, which are neither stable nor capable of being inherited (genotypic). Such visible changes occur especially where plants are grown in a wide variety of conditions, but will not carry over to different conditions, e.g., red leaves may occur in hot dry areas, but turn green when grown in normal conditions.
