Researchers selected candidate genes by identifying homozygous tracts shared by all three siblings along with the parental phenotype, this type of study is applied for the inheritance of recessive genes. Since the recessive genes can not be expressed in heterozygous genotype, the back tracking of carriers and homozygous recessive individual will help understand its inheritance pattern. The inheritance of dyt2 can be autosomal recessive. It is usually passed on to progeny of two carriers.
Heterotrophs help in maintaining a balance in the ecosystem by providing organic compounds for autotrophs. Certain heterotrophs such as fungi help in reducing decomposed plant and animal material. This recycling activity is important in reducing waste in the environment.
