- Nóta One can think that any trait dependent upon the genotype is a phenotype, for example, human blood groups represent different phenotypes that are the accurate representation of genotypes. However, in some cases the phenotypes are also being regulated by the environmental factors that range from the habitat of the organism to the other influencing molecules. These variations in phenotypes due to environmental factors are also known as “ecophenotypic variation.” In another version, the influences of all these including genotype, environment, and genotype–environment interactions have been implicated on phenotype. In human beings, cephalic or cranial index (ratio of the maximum width of the head multiplied by 100 divided by its maximum length) of children is observed to be related to the area where a child is born, irrespective of the child’s genotype or cultural heritage. Thus phenomenon like epigenetics (alterations in phenotypes from changes in chromosome without any change in genotype), dual inheritance (influence of genetic and cultural evolution), polyphenism (different phenotypes arise from same genotype), and maternal effect (influence of environment and genotype of mother) can produce the complexity in understanding the possible phenotypes of patients.
