location of a gene at a chromosome
A locus is the specific location where a gene sits on a chromosome, like an address for that gene. It matters because knowing where genes are located helps scientists understand heredity, identify genetic diseases, and track how traits are passed from parents to children.

基因座(英語:locus,複數:loci),又称基因位点、位点,是一生物學與遗传算法术语,指某個基因或具有调控作用的遗传标记在染色体上所处的特定位置。一个基因座可用染色体编号、染色体长短臂代号和其在染色体上所处的“区”、“带”、“子带”编号位置表示。 基因座上的DNA序列可能有許多不同的變化,各種變化形式稱為等位基因(allele)。基因座在基因組中的排列位置稱為基因图谱(genetic map),基因作圖(Gene mapping)則是測定基因座與特定性狀關係的過程。 二倍體與多倍體細胞的某些染色體上,在同一基因座上有相同的等位基因,這類細胞稱為纯合子/同型合子(homozygous)。若是相同基因座上含有不同的等位基因,則稱作杂合子/異型合子(heterozygous)。
