Epistasis research has the potential to unlock incredible breakthroughs in medicine. Studying epistatic interactions could help researchers find reliable genetic markers for common diseases.

Inbreeding depression resulting from partially recessive deleterious alleles is thought to be the main genetic factor preventing self-fertilizing mutants from spreading in outcrossing hermaphroditic ...

Epistasis and reduction in antibody effectiveness Overall, an extensive epistatic interaction was observed between antibody resistance substitutions and variation in the BA.1 or BA.2 proteins.
