1 Slide 1 Mendel and Meiosis

2 Slide 2 Mendel: An Austrian Monk Why offspring resemble their parents? Why offspring resemble their parents? Pea plants to study inheritance of characteristics. Pea plants to study inheritance of characteristics. Traits transferred. Traits transferred.

3 Slide 3 Genetic Terms Heredity: The passing of characteristics from parents to offspring. Heredity: The passing of characteristics from parents to offspring. Genetics: Branch of biology that studies heredity. Genetics: Branch of biology that studies heredity. Traits: Characteristics that are inherited. Traits: Characteristics that are inherited. Gametes: Sex Cells (two distinct cells –male and female) Gametes: Sex Cells (two distinct cells –male and female)

4 Slide 4 Plant Fertilization Male gamete is pollen (produced by anther) Male gamete is pollen (produced by anther) Female gamete is ovule (produced in the pistil) Female gamete is ovule (produced in the pistil) Pollination: The transfer of male pollen grains to the pistil of a flower. Pollination: The transfer of male pollen grains to the pistil of a flower. Fertilization: The uniting of male and female gametes. Occurs when male gamete in the pollen grain meets and fuses with the female gamete in the ovule. Fertilization: The uniting of male and female gametes. Occurs when male gamete in the pollen grain meets and fuses with the female gamete in the ovule. After the ovule gamete is fertilized, it matures into a seed. After the ovule gamete is fertilized, it matures into a seed.

5 Slide 5 Genetics Terms Hybrid- Offspring of crosses between parents with different traits Hybrid- Offspring of crosses between parents with different traits Purebred- Organisms that carry only one variation of a characteristic. Purebred- Organisms that carry only one variation of a characteristic.

6 Slide 6 Mendel’s Experiment: Why Pea Plants? Reproduce sexually (sex cells) Reproduce sexually (sex cells) Male and female gametes are in same flower Male and female gametes are in same flower Reproductive parts are enclosed tightly together. Reproductive parts are enclosed tightly together. Reproduce by self-pollination (Male and Female coming from same plant) Reproduce by self-pollination (Male and Female coming from same plant) Mendel could manipulate Mendel could manipulate Cross-Pollination: Breed-or-cross, one plant with another Cross-Pollination: Breed-or-cross, one plant with another –Mendel opened petals and removed anthers –Dusted the pistil with pollen from plant he wanted to cross with –Covered with bag

7 Slide 7 Mendel a careful researcher Controlled experiments and peas Controlled experiments and peas One trait at a time One trait at a time Analyzed data mathematically Analyzed data mathematically Used plants that were tall for many generations (true breeding for tallness). Used plants that were short for many generations (true breeding for shortness.) Used plants that were tall for many generations (true breeding for tallness). Used plants that were short for many generations (true breeding for shortness.)

8 Slide 8 Mendel’s Monohybrid Cross: Mendel crossed tall and short plants to produce new plants. Hybrids: Offspring of parents that have different forms of a trait. (short and tall). Hybrids: Offspring of parents that have different forms of a trait. (short and tall). Mono (one): Mono (one): 1 st experiments monohybrids 1 st experiments monohybrids Each parent plants differed by one single trait (height). Each parent plants differed by one single trait (height).

9 Slide 9 Mendel’s Monohybrid Cross (P 1 =“parents”) (P 1 =“parents”) –Short pea plant x Tall pea plant first generation (F 1 =“filial”) first generation (F 1 =“filial”) Result: All tall pea plants F 1 (first generation) Self-pollinate F 1 (first generation) Self-pollinate –Tall pea plant x Tall pea plant –3/4 th ’s Tall –1/4 th Short F 2 (second generation) F 2 (second generation)

10 Slide 10 Crosses P 1 generation—original parents P 1 generation—original parents “P” parent F 1 generation—Offspring of parents F 1 generation—Offspring of parents “F” filial—son or daughter F 2 generation—Cross 2 from F1 generation. F 2 generation—Cross 2 from F1 generation.

11 Slide 11 Trait patterns Mendel Observed In every case, he found that one trait of a pair seemed to disappear in the F 1 generation, only to reappear unchanged in ¼ of the F 2 plants.

12 Slide 12 Role of Unit factors Two factors control each traits Two factors control each traits Genes located on chromosomes. Genes located on chromosomes. Different forms of genes are called ALLELES. Different forms of genes are called ALLELES. Example: Alleles for height Two alleles for tallness Two alleles for tallness Two alleles for shortness Two alleles for shortness One allele for tallness and one for shortness One allele for tallness and one for shortness Alleles are located on different copies of the chromosomes Alleles are located on different copies of the chromosomes

13 Slide 13 The Rule of Dominance Dominant trait: Observed trait – Masks recessive Dominant trait: Observed trait – Masks recessive (Example: Mendel’s F 1 —All tall plants/tall allele is dominant trait) Recessive trait: Trait hidden by dominant trait Recessive trait: Trait hidden by dominant trait (Example: Mendel’s F 1 —All tall plants/short allele that reappears in F 2 is recessive trait)

14 Slide 14 Allele Shorthand –Same letter for different alleles –Upper case for dominant allele –Lower case for recessive allele –Dominant written first Example: Allele for tallness = T Allele for shortness = t Allele for shortness = t Tt Tt

15 Slide 15 Law of Segregation (Mendelian) Each organism has two different alleles, it can produce two different types of gametes. During fertilization, male and female gametes randomly pair to produce four combinations of alleles.

16 Slide 16 Phenotype Greek words phainein, meaning “to show,” and typos, meaning “model.” Greek words phainein, meaning “to show,” and typos, meaning “model.” The visible characteristics (appearance and behavior) of an organism makes up it phenotype. The visible characteristics (appearance and behavior) of an organism makes up it phenotype. Example: Example: Round, Wrinkled Yellow, Green Brunette, Blonde Blue Eyes, Brown Eyes

17 Slide 17 Genotype From the Greek words gen or geno, meaning “race,” and typos, meaning “model.” From the Greek words gen or geno, meaning “race,” and typos, meaning “model.” The genetic characteristics of an organism make up its genotype. The genetic characteristics of an organism make up its genotype.Example: Genotype of a tall plant that has two alleles for tallness is TT. Genotype of a tall plant that has one allele for tallness and one allele for shortness is Tt.

18 Slide 18 Homozygous Trait for two alleles is the same Example: Two alleles for tallness (TT) homozygous dominant Two alleles for shortness (tt)— homozygous recessive.

19 Slide 19 Heterozygous Two different alleles for one trait. Tt

20 Slide 20 Punnett Squares. (1905) Reginald Punnett, an English biologist, created way to expected proportions of possible genotypes in the offspring of cross-Punnett Square. (1905) Reginald Punnett, an English biologist, created way to expected proportions of possible genotypes in the offspring of cross-Punnett Square. Know the genotypes of the parents, you can use a Punnett square to predict the possible genotypes of their offspring. Know the genotypes of the parents, you can use a Punnett square to predict the possible genotypes of their offspring.

21 Slide 21 Making a Punnett Square

22 Slide 22 Monohybrid Crosses Mendel’s cross Tt x Tt Mendel’s cross Tt x Tt Half the gametes of each parent would contain the T allele, and the other half would contain the t allele. Half the gametes of each parent would contain the T allele, and the other half would contain the t allele. Gametes that each parent forms Tt x Tt One parent Other Parent It doesn’t matter which set of gametes are on top and which are on the side.

23 Slide 23 Determining Phenotypes (characteristics) If organism has at least one dominant allele, dominant trait will be expressed. If organism has at least one dominant allele, dominant trait will be expressed. (TT, BB, Tt, Bb ) For the recessive trait to be expressed, organism must lack dominant allele and have two recessive alleles. (bb or tt) For the recessive trait to be expressed, organism must lack dominant allele and have two recessive alleles. (bb or tt) Of the offspring ¼ will be homozygous dominant (TT/BB) 2/4 or ½ will be heterozygous (Tt, tT, Bb, bB) and ¼ will be homozygous recessive. Of the offspring ¼ will be homozygous dominant (TT/BB) 2/4 or ½ will be heterozygous (Tt, tT, Bb, bB) and ¼ will be homozygous recessive.

24 Slide 24 Mendel’s Dihybrid Crosses Di means “two.” Di means “two.” Dihybrid cross: A cross involving two different traits. Dihybrid cross: A cross involving two different traits. Mendel did true-breed dihybrid cross between round yellow seeds (RRYY) and wrinkled green seeds (rryy) Mendel did true-breed dihybrid cross between round yellow seeds (RRYY) and wrinkled green seeds (rryy) Mendel’s results of dihybrid cross: Mendel’s results of dihybrid cross: –P 1 round yellow x wrinkled green –F 1 All round yellow (round yellow dominant) –F 2 9 round yellow, 3 round green, 3 wrinkled yellow, 1 wrinkled green. Mendel found 2 dominate traits for round and yellow seeds.

25 Slide 25 Mendel’s dihybrid cross Dihybrid cross led to Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment.

26 Slide 26 Dihybrid Crosses Think of the RRYY x rryy cross (Round Yellow x Wrinkle Green seeds) Think of the RRYY x rryy cross (Round Yellow x Wrinkle Green seeds) Mendel found that seed shape and seed color would be inherited independently of each other. Mendel found that seed shape and seed color would be inherited independently of each other. Punnett square you will need four boxes on each side. Punnett square you will need four boxes on each side.

27 Slide 27 Dihybrid Cross

28 Slide 28 Law of Independent Assortment Mendelian principle stating that genes for different traits are inherited independently of each other. Example: Genotype RrYy produces gametes: Rr will separate Yy will separate Recombine in 4 different ways.

29 Slide 29 Dihybrid Cross Punnett squares are good for showing all the possible combinations of gametes and the likelihood that each will occur. However, you don’t get the exact ratio of results shown in the square.

30 Slide 30 Probability Genetics follows the rules of chance. Genetics follows the rules of chance. Probability or chance that an event will occur can be determined by dividing the number of desired outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes. Probability or chance that an event will occur can be determined by dividing the number of desired outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes. desired # of outcomes / total # of possible outcomes (Example: Toss a coin the probability of getting heads would be one in two chances, written 1:2 or ½. A Punnetts square can be used to determine the probability of the event. A Punnetts square can be used to determine the probability of the event.
