1 Mendelian Genetics

2 Mendelian Genetics Heredity – the passing of traits from parents to offspring Genetics: The scientific study of heredity

3 Mendelian Genetics Chromosomes- rod-shaped structures in the nucleus that transmits genetic information Genes- units of hereditary information found on the chromosomes

4 Important Vocabulary dominant- a gene that masks the expression of another gene in a pair (Symbol- capital letter) recessive- a gene in a pair that is hidden by the dominant gene (Symbol- lower case letter) Parent 1 R = red dominant Parent 2 r = yellow recessive Offspring Red (Rr)

5 Important Vocabulary Homozygous- two genes in a pair that are identical. Ex. Homozygous dominant- RR GG Homozygous recessive- rr gg Heterozygous- individual with one dominant and one recessive gene in a pair. Ex. Rr or Gg

6 Genotypes Homozygous = same alleles = PP, pp
Heterozygous = different alleles = Pp homozygous dominant heterozygous homozygous recessive

7 Phenotype vs. genotype 2 organisms can have the same phenotype but have different genotypes homozygous dominant PP purple Pp heterozygous purple Can’t tell by lookin’ at ya!

8 Important Vocabulary Identify each of the pairs below as homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, or heterozygous. Yy rr Tt SS  TT aa  Bb Ss Heterozygous Homozygous recessive Heterozygous Homozygous dominant Homozygous recessive Homozygous dominant Heterozygous Heterozygous

9 Important Vocabulary Allele- each form of a gene for a certain trait . Ex. B = dominant allele (brown eyes); b = recessive allele (blue eyes) Wild type allele producing functional protein Mutant allele for blue eyes producing malfunctioning protein

10 Important Vocabulary Genotype- the pair of alleles represented by the capital and lower case letters. Phenotype- the trait that is actually expressed in an organism - “Physical trait” Examples Genotype Phenotype YY yellow seeds Yy yellow seeds yy green seeds

11 Important Vocabulary Examples of genotype and phenotype

12 Important Vocabulary Examples of genotype of phenotype

13 Figure 14.5 Genotype versus phenotype

14 Inheritance You get your genes from your parents
In meiosis, half of the chromosomes in a pair come from the Dad, half come from the Mom What we know today is based on the work of Gregor Mendel

15 1822-1865 Gregor Mendel -Austrian Monk Paper was published in 1866,
– pea plants in monastery garden – COUNTED the plants and compiled data (QUANTITATIVE APPROACH to science) Paper was published in 1866, but not enough was understood to truly value this work. Today known as father of modern genetics

16 Mendel chose to use plants that were true-breeding…
P generation – parentals; true-breeding (On their own create identical offsprings) parents that were cross-pollinated F1 generation – hybrid offspring of parentals that were allowed to self-pollinate F2 generation – offspring of F1’s

17 *Flower color : purple (P) vs. white (p)
PP x pp All Pp PP, Pp & pp

flower color alleles  P or p true-breeding purple-flower peas  PP true-breeding white-flower peas  pp F1 P X purple white all purple PP x pp Pp

20 Mendel’s 3 principles Principle of Dominance- one factor (gene) in a pair may prevent the other factor (gene) in a pair from being expressed. Round RR All Round Rr F1 First Filial F2 Second Filial P Parental Wrinkled rr

21 Mendel’s 2nd law of heredity
PP P Law of segregation during meiosis, alleles segregate homologous chromosomes separate each allele for a trait is packaged into a separate gamete pp p Pp P p

22 Law of Segregation Which stage of meiosis creates the law of segregation? Metaphase 1 Whoa! And Mendel didn’t even know DNA or genes existed!

23 Mendel’s 3 Principles Principle of Independent Assortment- two or more pairs of genes segregate independently of one another during the formation of gametes In other words….. Just because a seed is round does not mean that it has to be yellow.

24 Mendel’s 3 principles Principle of Independent Assortment RrYy
R = round r = wrinkled Y = yellow y = green RY Ry rY ry Yellow Green Yellow Green Round Round Wrinkled Wrinkled

25 Punnett Square Device for predicting the results of a genetic cross between individuals of a known phenotype. Example Character – flower color Alleles – Purple (P) and white (p) Note: Purple is dominant with a capital letter and white is recessive shown with a lowercase of dominant trait Genotypic combos possible – two dominants: PP (homozygous dominant) two recessives: pp (homozygous recessive) One of each: Pp (heterozygous)

26 How does a Test cross work?
x x Am I this? Or am I this? PP pp Pp pp p p p p P P Pp Pp Pp Pp P p Pp Pp pp pp 100% purple 50% purple:50% white or 1:1

27 Monohybrid crosses – only one character considered
Steps to do: Write out genotypes of parents Write out possible gametes produced Draw 4 box Punnett square Put one parent on the left side and one parent across the top Fill in boxes Determine genotypes by reading Punnett starting from top left Determine phenotypes by reading from genotype list

28 Punnett Square Practice
Violet flowers are dominant to white flowers. Diagram a Punnett Square for 2 heterozygous flowers. What is the parents’ genotype(s)? What is the parents’ phenotypes(s)? What is the genotypic ratio for the offspring? What is the probability of producing a white flower? (In percent) V v Vv violet VV Vv V v 1:2:1 Vv vv 25%

29 Punnett Square Practice
Black rabbits are dominant over brown rabbits. A heterozygous male is crossed with a brown female. What is the mother’s genotype? What is the father’s genotype? Diagram a Punnett Square for this cross. What is the genotypic ratio? What is the phenotypic ratio? B b bb Bb Bb bb b 1:1 Bb bb 1:1

30 Dihybrid (Two-Factor)Cross
Because genes separate independently we can determine the possible outcomes of a two-factor cross. Example: Guinea pig hair color and length B- black b- brown S- short s- long F1 Hybrids for Hair Color and Length: BbSs FOIL – First, Outer, Inner, Last Possible gametes passed on to offspring: BS, Bs, bS, and bs –place in punnett square

31 Dihybrid Crosses BbSs x BbSs

32 Dihybrid Cross Example: Watermelon color and shape Gs gS GS gs GS GGSS
G- green g- striped S- short s- long Cross two Hybrids for Shape and Color: GgSs Gs gS GS gs GS GGSS GGSs GgSS GgSs Gs GGSs GGss GgSs Ggss gS GgSS GgSs ggSS ggSs GgSs ggSs ggss gs Ggss

33 Dihybrid Cross Now that the Punnett square is complete, determine the Phenotypic ratio 9 GS Gs gS gs _______Green, short _______Green, long _______Striped, short _______Striped, long Therefore, the ratio is: _________________ 3 GGSS GGSs GgSS GgSs GGss Ggss ggSS ggSs ggss Green, short Green, short Green, short Green, short 3 GS Gs gS gs 1 Green, short Green, long Green, short Green, long 9:3:3:1 Green, short Green, short Striped, short Striped, short Green, short Green, long Striped, short Striped, long

34 Beyond Dominant and Recessive
Incomplete Dominance One allele is not completely dominant over the other – something in the middle is expressed Ex. Red and White Snapdragons – Make Pink (Like mixing paints) p. 272 in your book Red – RR White – WW Pink – RW Only one phenotype for each one genotype

35

36 Codominance Codominance Both alleles are expressed in the phenotype
Ex. Cow Hair Color RR – Red WW – White RW – Roan (Red & White)

37 R W RR RW R W RW WW Incomplete Dominance
Example: Flower color is an incomplete dominant trait. One red gene and one white gene produces a pink flower. Cross two pink flowers.  1. What is the parents’ genotype? 2.What is the parents’ phenotype? 3. What is the genotypic ratio for this cross? 4. What is the phenotypic ratio for this cross? 5. What is the probability of producing a red flower? 6. What is the probability of producing a pink flower? R W RW Pink RR RW R W 1:2:1 1:2:1 RW WW 25% 50%

38 Beyond Dominant and Recessive
Multiple Alleles Genes have more then two alleles Ex. Blood Type Color Coats in Rabbits A and B are also codominant

39 A B AO BO O AO BO Blood types
Diagram a cross for a man with blood type AB and a woman with blood type O. What is the children’s genotype(s)? What is the children’s phenotypes(s)? What is probability of producing a child with blood type O? (in percent) What is the probability of producing a child with blood type B? (In percent) A B AO, BO Blood type A or B AO BO O AO BO 50%

40 Sex-linked traits Sex-linked traits- traits that are controlled by genes found on the sex chromosomes. The X chromosome contains the gene and the Y chromosome does not. How many pairs of chromosomes do humans have? What is the difference between male and female chromosomes? Female – and Male – 23 Pair # 23 XX XY

41 Karyotype – Picture of Chromosomes
1-22 Autosomal 23 Sex Chromosomes Is this karyotype for a male or female?

42 Sex-Linked Genes Ex. Colorblindness is carried on the sex-chromosomes
It is a recessive trait

43 Sex-Linked Punnett Square
N – Normal Vision and n - Colorblind X Y crossed with X X - colorblind Male x Carrier Female n N n Xn Y 1. What is the female’s genotype? 2. What is the male’s genotype? 3. What is the probability of producing a colorblind child? 4. What is the probability of producing a colorblind female? 5. What is the phenotypic ratio for this cross? XNXn XnY XN Xn XN Xn XNY 50% Xn Xn XnY 25% 1:1:1:1

44 Pedigrees Pedigree- Diagram showing the inheritance of a trait in a family *Colored boxes and circles show the trait

45 Pedigrees

46 Pedigrees Curly hair is dominant and straight hair is recessive. The colored figures in the pedigree show which individuals have straight hair. Determine the genotypes and phenotypes for the pedigree in the diagram cc straight Cc curly C? curly cc straight cc straight Cc curly Cc curly cc straight C? curly cc straight Cc curly C? curly Cc curly
