London was a particular locus for unrest, and the activities of the city's politically active guilds and fraternities often alarmed the authorities.

Currently there are many methods used to determine the zygosity status of a gene at a particular locus.

This particular locus (Xq28) encompasses genes that are believed to be subject to X inactivation.

If the DNA sequence at a particular locus varies between individuals, the different forms of this sequence are called alleles.

This is a limitation of the microarray technology that should be considered when referring to a particular locus as divergent.

Thus, for example, the two alleles at a particular locus in a diploid individual are always different by origin.

The second criterion for defining a family was common chromosomal localization, including co-localization in a particular genomic locus if known at the time of analysis.

The term allele normally refers to one variant gene out of several possible for a particular locus in the DNA.

Of these, three have been linked to particular genes, while the two remaining have currently only been associated with a particular locus.

The heterozygous condition is therefore lost at that particular locus and the recessive phenotype is revealed.
