Abstract:
Taking the accumulation process of protein and oil in rapeseed as an example, the paper explores the possibility of application of harmonic analysis to describing the quantitative change process of biological characters. Some genetic rules involved in the phenotype processes of characters are discovered through decomposing genetic quantity from the dynamic change processes of the characters. The preliminary conclusion is that there are two prevailing simple-harmonic oscillators in the accumulation processes of protein and oil in rapeseed, which are inheritable. This shows that harmonic analysis opens up a new explorative way by which genetic rules of the phenotype processes of biological characters can be revealed.
