Bio Term antiterminator protein is A protein that, when bound at its normal attachment sites in DNA, lets RNA polymerase read through normal terminator sequences (eg the N- and Q-gene products of phage lambda).

Bio Term frequency-dependent fitness is fitness differences whose intensity changes with changes in the relative frequency of genotypes in the population.

Bio Term subvital gene is A gene that causes the death of some proportion (but not all) of the individuals that express it.

Bio Term panmictic is Referring to unstructured (random-mating) populations.

Bio Term Enrichment is A condition which increases the proportion of a particular organism or mutant strain from a mixed population. For example, a penicillin enrichment kills growing cells and allows mutants unable to grow under a particular condition to survive; however, for each round of penicillin enrichment typically only 1% of the growing cells are killed, thus each round of enrichment increases the mutant ratio about 100-fold. Compare with selection.
