Association (genetic): Association refers to a concurrence greater than predicted by chance between a specific allele and another trait (for example, a disease) that may or may not have a genetic basis.

And this association is very important, because the vibrios break down the strong white shell of crabs and the cocopods. It's made up of chitin.

An association in inheritance between characters such that the parental character combinations appear among the progeny more often than the non-parental.

Although an association between two phenomena is no more than that, one can apply criteria to gauge the strength of the association, and if it is strong, infer that one phenomenon causes the other.
The five criteria: ...

symbiotic An association of two or more different organisms in which both benefit.
symmetrogenic fission Mitotic fission between the rows of flagella of protozoa.

Lichens are a symbiotic association of a fungus and an alga. The alga may be a prokaryotic blue-green alga or a eukaryotic unicellular alga. Lichens, therefore, do not belong in any one kingdom. Symbiosis means "living together.

The more or less spherical structure which occurs in association with a particular point (the nucleolar organizer) on a specific chromosome in the nucleus.

mycorrhizae -- Symbiotic association between a fungus and the roots or rhizoids of a plant. More info?
node -- The region of a stem between two internodes, where there is branching of the vascular tissue into leaves or other appendages.

Parasitism. The closee association of two or more dissimilar organisms where the association is harmful to at least one. See Commensalism, Parasitism, Symbiosis.
Pathogen. Organism which can cause disease in another organism.

Regulation of repression is usually modulated by a ligand which binds to the repressor protein and alters its DNA-binding properties. DNA-binding may be increased by association with a co-repressor or DNA-binding may be decreased by association with ...

chromosome
a long, threadlike association of genes in the nucleus of all eukaryotic cells and most visible during mitosis and meiosis. Chromosomes consist of DNA and protein.

A microorganism capable of producing disease under normal conditions of host resistance and rarely living in close association with the host without producing disease; any microorganism, virus, substance, or factor causing disease (Cantwell, 1974).

Functional annotations generally take the form of associations of data such as genes, to keywords such as GO terms that describe the function, subcellular localization and processes involving the gene product. Structural annotations (e.g.

Linkage -- the greater association in inheritance of two or more nonallelic genes than is to be expected from independent assortment; genes are linked because they reside on the same chromosome.
