The Extended Phenotype : The Long Reach of the Gene
In The Selfish Gene, Richard Dawkins crystallized the gene's eye view of evolution developed by W.D.Hamilton and others. The book provoked widespread and heated debate. Written in part as a response, The Extended Phenotype gave a deeper clarification of the central concept of the gene as the unit of selection; but it did much more besides.In it, Dawkins extended the gene's eye view to argue that the genes that sit within an organism have an influence that reaches out beyond the visible traits in that body - the phenotype - to the wider environment, which can include other individuals.So, for instance, the genes of the beaver drive it to gather twigs to produce the substantial physical structure of a dam; and the genes of the cuckoo chick produce effects that manipulate the behaviour of the host bird, making it nurture the intruder as one of its own.This notion of the extended phenotype has proved to be highly influential in the way we understand evolution and the natural world.It represents a key scientific contribution to evolutionary biology, and it continues to play an important role in research in the life sciences. The Extended Phenotype is a conceptually deep book that forms important reading for biologists and students.But Dawkins' clear exposition is accessible to all who are prepared to put in a little effort. Oxford Landmark Science books are 'must-read' classics of modern science writing which have crystallized big ideas, and shaped the way we think.

What is the phenotype?
The phenotype refers to the observable physical and behavioral characteristics of an organism, which are the result of the interaction between its genetic makeup (genotype) and the environment. These characteristics can include traits such as eye color, height, and behavior. The phenotype is the outward expression of an organism's genetic information and can be influenced by both genetic and environmental factors.

What phenotype are you looking for?
I am looking for a phenotype that exhibits a specific trait or characteristic of interest. This could include physical traits such as color or size, behavioral traits such as aggression or sociability, or physiological traits such as resistance to disease. By identifying and studying this phenotype, I hope to gain a better understanding of the underlying genetic and environmental factors that contribute to its expression.

What is the difference between phenotype and genotype?
Phenotype refers to the observable physical and behavioral characteristics of an organism, such as its height, eye color, or behavior. These traits are the result of the interaction between an organism's genetic makeup and its environment. Genotype, on the other hand, refers to the genetic makeup of an organism, including the specific combination of alleles it carries for a particular trait. While genotype determines the potential for certain traits, the phenotype is the actual expression of those traits. In other words, genotype is the genetic code, while phenotype is the physical manifestation of that code.
-
What is the difference between race and phenotype?
Race refers to a social construct that categorizes people based on shared physical and cultural traits, often including skin color, facial features, and ancestry. Phenotype, on the other hand, refers to the observable physical characteristics of an individual, such as hair color, eye color, and height, which are determined by genetic and environmental factors. While race is a socially constructed concept, phenotype is a biological trait that can vary widely within racial groups.

Fishing Boats of Scotland
From Orkney and Shetland to the north east coast, and from Fife to Berwick, fishing boats have been an important part of the maritime heritage of Scotland.The original designs of fishing vessels were based on Viking ships, but by the early twentieth century, scaffies, fifies and zulus were being replaced by more modern craft, all of which are included in this charming collection of fishing boats of Scotland.The future of the fishing industry in Scotland cannot currently be termed as promising; successive EEC rulings gave resulted in a large diminution of fleet, and this, combined with a regime of ever-changing restrictions and rules, have made it impossible to work with current legislation and still be economically viable.However, the author hopes that there will be those who, either due to faith and enterprise or simply for lack of other opportunity, will continue to invest and continue as generations of their forefathers have done before.This book illustrates the vessels that played a past in the fishing industry in Scotland, with 200 old photographs accompanied by informative captions.

The Fishing Boats Story
Britain has a history of producing and using a wonderful array of fishing boats, some of which still sail under private ownership.These older vessels developed in their own unique ways, dependent on local traditions, the type of fishing, their place of operation and innovation from fishermen and boatbuilders alike.Later, with motorisation, they changed dramatically through the steam era until the advent of the internal combustion engine.Today fishing boats old and new attract scores of people to fishing harbours everywhere, inspired by picturesque scenes, the life on board or the new breed of vessels with their modern technology in an ever-increasing competitive market.

Can a person's origin be inferred from their phenotype?
A person's origin cannot be definitively inferred from their phenotype alone. While certain physical traits may be more common in specific populations, there is a wide range of variation within and between populations. Additionally, many people have mixed ancestry, making it difficult to pinpoint their origin based solely on their physical appearance. Therefore, it is not accurate or ethical to make assumptions about a person's origin based on their phenotype.
-
Is the phenotype test sufficient for determining the race?
No, the phenotype test is not sufficient for determining race. Race is a complex social construct that encompasses a variety of factors including ancestry, culture, and self-identification. Phenotype tests only examine physical characteristics such as skin color, hair texture, and facial features, which do not fully capture the complexity of race. Additionally, race is not solely determined by genetics, but also by social and historical factors. Therefore, using a phenotype test alone to determine race is not accurate or comprehensive.

Can you please explain the difference between genotype and phenotype?
Genotype refers to the genetic makeup of an organism, including the specific combination of genes it carries. This genetic information is inherited from parents and determines the potential traits an organism can have. On the other hand, phenotype refers to the observable physical characteristics and traits of an organism, which are influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. In simpler terms, genotype is the genetic blueprint, while phenotype is the physical expression of that blueprint.
-
How can the numerical ratio for the phenotype be indicated?
The numerical ratio for a phenotype can be indicated using a Punnett square, which is a visual representation of the possible genetic combinations that can result from a genetic cross. The ratio is typically expressed as a fraction or a percentage, representing the probability of each phenotype appearing in the offspring. For example, a 3:1 ratio would indicate that there is a 75% chance of one phenotype and a 25% chance of another phenotype appearing in the offspring.
