WHAT DOES PHENOCOPIES MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Phenocopy

A phenocopy is a variation in phenotype which is caused by environmental conditions, such that the organism's phenotype matches a phenotype which is determined by genetic factors. It is not a type of mutation, as it is non-hereditary. The term was coined by Richard Goldschmidt in 1935. He used it to refer to forms, produced by some experimental procedure, whose appearance duplicates or copies the phenotype of some mutant or combination of mutants.
