Allelogenesis
Definition
The evolutionary or biochemical process of formation, emergence, and differentiation of alternative forms of a gene (alleles) within the gene pool of a species. Structurally, allelogenesis occurs through point mutations, gene duplications, or successive molecular recombinations, constituting the primary source of gene polymorphism and variability upon which natural selection acts.
