Particulate Inheritance
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Particulate Inheritance Mendel stated that physical traits are inherited as “particles” Mendel did not know that the “particles” were actually Chromosomes & DNA copyright cmassengale
7
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Genetic Terminology Gene – a segment of DNA that is located in a chromosome & codes for a specific heredity trait Trait - any characteristic that can be passed from parent to offspring Heredity - passing of traits from parent to offspring Genetics - study of heredity copyright cmassengale

Types of Genetic Crosses
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Types of Genetic Crosses Cross – mating of two individuals Gamete – male and female sex cells (egg & sperm) Fertilization – the union of male and female gametes to form a zygote. Monohybrid cross - cross involving a single trait e.g. flower color Dihybrid cross - cross involving two traits e.g. flower color & plant height copyright cmassengale

Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Designer “Genes” Alleles - two forms of a gene Ex. on chromosomes that code for ht. there would be 2 alleles, short & tall) Dominant - visible, observable trait; stronger of two genes expressed in the hybrid and masks the recessive. represented by a capital letter (R) Recessive – hidden trait; gene that shows up less often in a cross; represented by a lowercase letter (r) copyright cmassengale
12
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 More Terminology Genotype - gene combination for a trait; genetic make up of an organism (e.g. RR, Rr, rr) Phenotype - the physical feature or visible traits of an organism (e.g. red, white) copyright cmassengale
13
Genotype & Phenotype in Flowers
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Genotype & Phenotype in Flowers Genotype of alleles: R = red flower r = yellow flower All genes occur in pairs, so 2 alleles affect a characteristic Possible combinations are: Genotypes RR Rr rr Phenotypes RED RED YELLOW copyright cmassengale
14
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Genotypes Homozygous genotype – both alleles are identical for a specific trait; 2 dominant or 2 recessive genes; (e.g. RR or rr); also called pure Heterozygous genotype – having 2 different alleles for a given 1 dominant & 1 recessive allele (e.g. Rr); also called hybrid copyright cmassengale

Mendel’s Pea Plant Experiments
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Mendel’s Pea Plant Experiments copyright cmassengale
16
Mendel’s Pea Plant Experiments
Mendel crossed 2 plants with different characters, or forms, for the same trait. Ex. 1 tall & 1 short *The plants that grew were hybrid. Hybrid– are the offspring of crosses between parents with different traits. copyright cmassengale
17
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Why peas, Pisum sativum? Can be grown in a small area Produce lots of offspring Produce pure plants when allowed to self-pollinate several generations Can be artificially cross-pollinated copyright cmassengale
18
Mendel’s Experimental Methods
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Mendel’s Experimental Methods Mendel hand-pollinated flowers using a paintbrush He could snip the stamens to prevent self-pollination Covered each flower with a cloth bag He traced traits through the several generations copyright cmassengale
19
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 How Mendel Began Mendel produced pure strains by allowing the plants to self-pollinate for several generations copyright cmassengale

Mendel’s Experimental Results
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Mendel’s Experimental Results copyright cmassengale
24
Experiment I Concluded:
*Each trait is based on two genes, one from the mother and the other from the father *The hybrid plants looked like only 1 parent and the character of the other parent seemed to disappear. *Each trait is controlled by 1 gene. Alleles- controls the different forms of a gene. Genes- chemical factors that determine traits. Phenotype is based on Genotype copyright cmassengale

Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Mendel’s Laws copyright cmassengale
26
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Law of Dominance *States that some alleles are dominant & others are recessive. *Whenever a living thing inherits a dominant allele, that trait is visible. *All the offspring will be heterozygous and express only the dominant trait. RR x rr yields all Rr (round seeds) copyright cmassengale
27

Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Law of Dominance copyright cmassengale
28
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Law of Segregation During the formation of gametes (eggs or sperm), the two alleles responsible for a trait separate from each other. Alleles for a trait are then "recombined" at fertilization, producing the genotype for the traits of the offspring. copyright cmassengale
29
Experiment II: Law of Segregation
Mendel crossed a tall plant (dominant) with a short plant (recessive), the F1 plant inherited an allele for tallness from the tall parent & an allele for shortness from the short parent. Pg. 265 Mendel allowed his hybrid plants to self-pollinate. Some showed recessive traits, the recessive traits did not disappear. Earlier, the dominant masked the recessive, so it was not visible. Alleles for the same trait can be separated. copyright cmassengale
30
copyright cmassengale
Law of Segregation Segregation – When sex cells, or gametes, are formed. Each gamete carries only 1 copy of each gene. Therefore, each F1 plant produces 2 types of gametes (some with an allele for tallness & some with an allele for shortness). Ex. T, t, T, t = TT, Tt, Tt, tt copyright cmassengale

32
Probability – the likelihood that a particular event will occur.
Ex. Flipping a coin. The probability that it will land on tails is ½. copyright cmassengale
33
Law of Independent Assortment
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Law of Independent Assortment Alleles for different traits are distributed to sex cells (& offspring) independently of one another. This helps account for genetic variations. This law can be illustrated using dihybrid crosses. Ex Pea shape & pea color copyright cmassengale
34
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Generation “Gap” Parental P1 Generation = the parental generation in a breeding experiment. F1 generation = the first-generation offspring in a breeding experiment. (1st filial generation) From breeding individuals from the P1 generation F2 generation = the second-generation offspring in a breeding experiment. (2nd filial generation) From breeding individuals from the F1 generation copyright cmassengale

Incomplete Dominance and Codominance
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Incomplete Dominance and Codominance copyright cmassengale
59
Different Patterns of Dominant & Recessive
Incomplete Dominance – 1 allele is not completely dominant over another. Ex. Red flower (RR) & white flower (WW), F1 is a pink flower (RW). Pg. 272 Codominance – both alleles contribute to the phenotype. Ex. A cross of a black chicken (BB) with a white chicken (WW) will produce all speckled offspring (BBWW); colors appear separately. copyright cmassengale
60
Codominance In codominance, an organism has two different alleles of a gene and shows both phenotypes at the same time.
61
Different Patterns of Dominant & Recessive
Multiple Alleles – have more than 2 alleles. Ex. Coat color in rabbits. Polygenic Traits – traits controlled by 2 or more genes; “having many genes”. Ex. Variation in human skin color. copyright cmassengale
62
Polygenic Traits Inherited traits that are determined by more than one gene are called polygenic traits. Feather color in parakeets is determined by two genes. One gene controls yellow color and the other controls blue color.
63
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Incomplete Dominance F1 hybrids have an appearance somewhat in between the phenotypes of the two parental varieties. Example: snapdragons (flower) red (RR) x white (rr) RR = red flower rr = white flower r R copyright cmassengale
64
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Incomplete Dominance r R r All Rr = pink (heterozygous pink) produces the F1 generation Rr copyright cmassengale

66
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Codominance Two alleles are expressed (multiple alleles) in heterozygous individuals. Example: blood type 1. type A = IAIA or IAi 2. type B = IBIB or IBi 3. type AB = IAIB 4. type O = ii copyright cmassengale
67
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Codominance Problem Example: homozygous male Type B (IBIB) x heterozygous female Type A (IAi) IB IA i IAIB IBi 1/2 = IAIB 1/2 = IBi copyright cmassengale
68
Another Codominance Problem
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Another Codominance Problem Example: male Type O (ii) x female type AB (IAIB) i IA IB IAi IBi 1/2 = IAi 1/2 = IBi copyright cmassengale

copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Codominance Question: If a boy has a blood type O and his sister has blood type AB, what are the genotypes and phenotypes of their parents? boy - type O (ii) X girl – type AB (IAIB) copyright cmassengale
70
copyright cmassengale
Mendelian Genetics 4/6/2019 Codominance Answer: IB IA i IAIB ii Parents: genotypes = IAi and IBi phenotypes = A and B copyright cmassengale
71
Multiple alleles Multiple alleles are also common in organisms. In humans for example, three alleles determine blood type (A, B, and O).
