Welcome Back! Tracey has three brothers. One of Tracey's brothers has sickle-cell anemia, a disease caused by a recessive allele. She, her parents, and the other children do not have it. If Tracey's parents have another child, what is the chance that the child will have sickle-cell anemia? A.0% B.25% C.50% D.75%

Going Beyond Mendelian Genetics

Where did the grey mouse come from?
Bw X Bw = BB (25%) + Bw (50%) + ww (25%) Dominant (Black) Heterozygous (Black) Recessive (White) Mendelian Genetics Where did the grey mouse come from?
5
Co-Dominance and Incomplete Dominance
6
Incomplete Dominance does not follow Mendel’s Rules
Bb X Bb = BB (25%) + Bb (50%) + bb (25%) Dominant Incomplete Recessive
7
Bb X Bb = BB (25%) + Bb (50%) + bb (25%)
According to Gregor Mendel: Genotypes: 25% BB 50% Bb 25% bb Phenotypes: 75% Black 25% White What about grey?!?!?!?!?! Bb X Bb = BB (25%) + Bb (50%) + bb (25%)
8
BW X BW = BB(25%) + BW(50%) + WW(25%)
Instead of writing it that way, we use a different capital letter for both. This is because neither is dominant over the other. BW X BW = BB(25%) + BW(50%) + WW(25%) Genotypes: 25% BB 50% BW 25% WW Phenotypes: 25% Black 50% Grey 25% White This ONLY works if the problem tells you its co or incomplete dominance. B W B B B B B W W WW W
9
Incomplete Dominance A cross between organisms with two different phenotypes produces offspring with a third phenotype that is a blending of the parental traits. red x white ---> Pink
10
Incomplete Dominance R = allele for red flowers W = allele for white flowers red x white ---> pink RR x WW ---> 100% RW
11
Incomplete Dominance
12
red x white ---> red & white spotted
Co-Dominance red x white ---> Pink Co: Together, or Shared Coexist- live together Co-dominance- The"recessive" & "dominant" traits appear together in the phenotype of hybrid organisms. red x white ---> red & white spotted Co-Captains
13
Co-Dominance red x white ---> red & white spotted BOTH!!!
R = allele for red flowers W = allele for white flowers red x white ---> red & white spotted RR x WW ---> 100% RW
14
What Do We Have Here? BB X WW BB- Black White- White Co-dominance: White and Black
15
What Do We Have Here? Theoretically….. Beaver X Duck? Co-Dominance: Platypus

1. Traits seen “together”
Incomplete Dominance Co-Dominance Mixture Blend 3rd or New Phenotype 1. Traits seen “together”

Bonus Material sex-linked trait -A trait associated with a gene that is carried only by the male or female parent. Ex: In humans, the gene for colorblindness is carried by the X-chromosome.
