The genes in cells carry the hereditary information that is received from a person's parents.

As many as one in 10 whites in this country carries the abnormal gene that leads to the disease.

"Our genes carry the seams and spot-welds that reveal the story," Wells explains.

In antagonistic pleiotropy, genes carry effects that are both beneficial and detrimental.

I believe the gene carries more than physical characteristics.

The genes in cells carry hereditary information from parent to child.

Such reasoning relies upon the untested postulate that these genes carry the mark of a previous host genome.

The small increase in risk is thought to occur because related people may be carrying some of the same disease-causing genes, inherited from common ancestors.

The gene carries the code for a type of protein molecule known as a transcription factor.

The genes you've inherited carry most of the risk, an identical-twin study shows.
