[The research progress in genetic susceptibility of noise-induced hearing loss]
Abstract:
Hazards of noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) to crowd who are long-term exposured and work in the noisy environment is increasingly prominent. But just part of the individuals who are exposed to the same noisy environment have hearing loss, and the severity of hearing loss are different, which indicates genetic predisposition might be associated with NIHL. In recent years, many experts and scholars at home and abroad have done a lot of research in this field, this article summarizes all available studies.

Background and Environment Affect Phenotype
An example of how genetic background affects phenotype can be seen in horses. The Extension gene in horses is responsible for their coat color. A wild-type gene (EE) produces black pigment in the coat, while a mutant gene (ee) produces red pigment. A...
