Why is the B in Brachury gene capital?
The capital "B" in Brachury gene indicates it is the dominant form of the gene. In genetic notation, uppercase letters typically represent dominant alleles, while lowercase letters represent recessive alleles.
What do we use to represent dominant alleles?
generally capital letters are used to describe dominant alleles and recessive are indicated by lowercase. for example brown eyes might be B and green eyes would be b. the letter used could be anything and isn't relavent to the gene.
