heritabililty [GENO_0000138]

The disposition of an entity to be transmitted to subsequent generations following a genetic replication or organismal reproduction event. We can use these terms to describe the heritability of genetic matieral or sequence features - e.g. chromosomal DNA or genes are heritable in that they are passed on to child cells/organisms). Such genetic material has a heritable disposition in a cell or virion, in virtue of its being replicated in its cellular host and inherited by progeny cells (such that the sequence content it encodes is stably propagated in the genetic material of subsequence generations of cells). We can also use these terms to describe the heritability of phenotypes/conditions - e.g. the passage of a particular trait or disease across generations of reproducing cells/organisms.
