Maternal Effect Mutations

Maternal Effect Mutations is a genetic phenomenon in which the phenotype of an organism is determined by the genotype of the mother, specifically due to mutations in maternal effect genes that disrupt essential gene products deposited in the egg, thereby affecting embryonic development irrespective of the embryo’s own genotype.
