What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring?
The “blending” hypothesis is the idea that genetic material from the two parents blends together (like blue and yellow paint blend to make green) offspring
The “particulate” hypothesis is the idea that parents pass on discrete heritable units (genes)
Mendel documented a particulate mechanism through his experiments with garden peas which began in 1860’s

I. INTRODUCTIONI. INTRODUCTIONA. Blending Theory of Heredity
• Pre-Mendel• Proposed that hereditary material from each parent mixes or blends in the offspring
B. Particulate Theory of Heredity• Gregor Mendel’s theory• Parents transmit to their offspring inheritable factors (genes)
• Began in 1860’s

![Page 15: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
A. Mendel’s Conclusions
1. For each character, an organism inherits two genes (factors), one from each parent.
2. Alternative forms of genes are responsible for variations in inherited characters.
If the two alleles (factors) differ, one is fully expressed (dominant allele); the other is completely masked (recessive allele).
•Symbol for dominant allele—capital letter•Symbol for recessive allele—lowercase letter

Law of Segregation3. Law of Segregation
• The two genes (factors) for each character segregate during gamete formation
• Occurs during meiosis

![Page 17: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
4. Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment• States: Each allele pair segregates independently of
other gene pairs during gamete formation.• Developed from dihybrid crosses• Refers to behavior of genes during gamete formation• Refers to genes on different chromosomes.• Ex: RrTt x RrTt

C. Inheritance as a Game of Chance
1. Laws of Probability• Probability of 1 means event certain to occur• Probability of 0 means event certain not to occur• Probability of all possible outcomes for an event add up
to 1• Two basic rules of probability:
20
![Page 21: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
a. Rule of Multiplication
• the probability that independent events will occur simultaneously is the product of their individual probabilities
• What is the probability that offspring will be pp if the parents are Pp x Pp?
-First determine the probability that an egg will receive a “p” allele (½)
-Then determine the probability that a sperm will receive a “p” allele (½)-Solution:
½ x ½ = ¼
21
![Page 22: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
b. Rule of Addition• The probability of an event that can occur in two or more
independent ways is the sum of the separate probabilities of the different ways.
• In the cross Pp x Pp, what is the probability of the offspring being heterozygous (Pp)?
-2 ways:egg sperm probabilityP (½) p (½) = Pp ¼p (½) P (½) = Pp ¼
-Solution¼ + ¼ = ½

IV. Concept 14.3: Extending IV. Concept 14.3: Extending Mendelian GeneticsMendelian Genetics
23
The relationship between genotype and phenotype is rarely as simple as in the pea plant characters Mendel studied
Many heritable characters are not determined by only one gene with two alleles
However, the basic principles of segregation and independent assortment apply even to more complex patterns of inheritance
![Page 24: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

A. Extending Mendelian Genetics for a Single Gene
1. Inheritance of characters by a single gene may deviate from simple Mendelian patterns in the following situations:
•When alleles are not completely dominant or recessive
•When a gene has more than two alleles•When a gene produces multiple phenotypes
![Page 25: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
V. EXTENDING MENDELIAN GENETICS
Complete Dominance• The phenotypes of the heterozygote and the dominant homozygote are indistinguishable.
25
![Page 26: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
V. EXTENDING MENDELIAN GENETICS
A. Incomplete Dominance• Dominant phenotype is not fully expressed in
heterozygote, resulting in a third phenotype that is intermediate between homozygous dominant and homozygous recessive.
• Example:P red flowers x white flowers
F1 pink flowers (self-pollinate)
F2 ¼ red ½ pink ¼ white
26
![Page 27: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Degrees of Dominance
• Complete Dominance- the phenotypes of the heterozygote and the dominant homozygote are indistinguishable.
• Incomplete Dominance- neither allele is completely dominant and the F1 hybrids have a phenotype somewhere between those of the two parental varieties.

The Relation Between Dominance and Phenotype
31
1. A dominant allele does not subdue a recessive allele; alleles don’t interact
2. Alleles are simply variations in a gene’s nucleotide sequence
3. For any character, dominance/recessiveness relationships of alleles depend on the level at which we examine the phenotype
• Tay-Sachs disease is fatal; a dysfunctional enzyme causes an accumulation of lipids in the brain
![Page 32: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
B. Codominance• Defined as the full expression of both alleles in a heterozygote• Ex: MN blood type
• Tay Sachs• At the organismal level, the allele is recessive• At the biochemical level, the phenotype (i.e., the
enzyme activity level) is incompletely dominant• At the molecular level, the alleles are codominant

33
Frequency of Dominant Alleles1. Dominant alleles are not necessarily more common in
populations than recessive alleles
2. For example, one baby out of 400 in the United States is born with extra fingers or toes
3. The allele for this unusual trait is dominant to the allele for the more common trait of five digits per appendage
![Page 34: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
D. Multiple Alleles• More than two alternative forms (alleles) of a gene• Ex: ABO blood group• The four phenotypes of the ABO blood group (A,
B, AB, O) in humans are determined by three alleles for the enzyme (I) that attaches A or B carbohydrates to red blood cells: IA, IB, and i.
• 3 alleles produce 4 possible phenotypes—A, B, O, AB
• IA and IB are dominant to i (recessive).• IA and IB are codominant to each other.• Each person carries only 2 alleles.

Blood Problem• Identification bracelets were accidentally removed
from three newborn babies. Blood typings were taken to help in the identification procedures. The blood types for the babies and their parents were: Baby 1- type A, Baby 2- type O, Baby 3- type AB• Mr. Black = type A Mr. Black = type B• Mr. Green = type AB Mrs. Green = type O• Mr. White = type O Mrs. White = type O
• Which baby could belong to Mr. and Mrs. Black?• Which baby could belong to Mr. and Mrs. Green?• Which baby could belong to Mr. and Mrs. White?

E. Pleiotrophy• Ability of a single gene to have multiple phenotypic
effects• For example, pleiotropic alleles are responsible for
the multiple symptoms of certain hereditary diseases
• Ex: sickle cell anemia, cystic fibrosis

F. Epistasis• Interaction between two nonallelic genes in which one
alters the phenotypic expression of the other (a gene at one locus alters the phenotypic expression of a gene at a second locus)
• Dihybrid cross results will deviate from expected ratio of 9:3:3:1
• One gene determines the pigment color (with alleles B for black and b for brown)
• The other gene (with alleles C for color and c for no color) determines whether the pigment will be deposited in the hair

G. Polygenic Inheritance
• Additive effect of two or more genes determines a single phenotypic character
• Ex: Skin pigmentation in humans is controlled by at least 3 separately inherited genes.
--incomplete dominance--AABBCC- very dark--aabbcc-very light--AaBbCc-intermediate shade--phenotype can be affected by

H. Environmental Effects on Phenotype• Coat color can be influenced by temperature.
-Ex: Siamese cats• Curly wing mutant of Drosophila loses the ability to fly
at less than 16° C• Color of flowers of Hydrangeas because of soil pH
I. Phenocopy• Environmentally produced phenotype that simulates
the effects of a particular gene-Ex: The drug thalidomide mimics the birth
defect phocomelia.

Environmental Effects on Phenotype (Nature vs. Nuture)•Another departure from Mendelian genetics arises when the phenotype for a character depends on environment as well as genotype
•Coat color can be influenced by temperature.-Ex: Siamese cats
•Curly wing mutant of Drosophila loses the ability to fly at less than 16° C
•Color of flowers of Hydrangeas because of soil pH

J. Norm of Reaction• Refers to range of phenotypic possibilities due to
environmental influences• The norm of reaction is the phenotypic range
of a genotype influenced by the environment• Nature vs. Nurture (genetics vs. environment)• Norms of reaction are broadest for polygenic
characters such as skin color which are usually referred to as multifactorial (both genetic and environmental factors influence phenotype).

VI. MENDELIAN INHERITANCE IN HUMANS
A. Difficult to study because:• generation time• number of offspring• can not control breeding experiments• different genetic backgrounds
B. Human Pedigrees (Family Tree)• Shows inheritance pattern of a particular phenotypic
character• Used to show Mendelian inheritance in humans• Helps to understand the past and predict the future• Important in genetic counseling for disabling or lethal
disorders53

C. Autosomal Recessive Disorders
58
1. Recessively inherited disorders show up only in individuals homozygous for the allele
2. Carriers are heterozygous individuals who carry the recessive allele but are phenotypically normal (i.e., pigmented)
3. Albinism is a recessive condition characterized by a lack of pigmentation in skin and hair
4. If a recessive allele that causes a disease is rare, then the chance of two carriers meeting and mating is low
5. Consanguineous matings (i.e., matings between close relatives) increase the chance of mating between two carriers of the same rare allele
![Page 59: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Autosomal Recessive Disorders• Usually involves a malfunctional protein or no protein
production at all• Consanguinity
-genetic relationship resulting from matings between closely related people-often produces homozygous recessive offspring-not always harmful
• Heterozygotes can be normal• Examples:

Monohybrid Cross• A brown dog is homozygous for the gene
that controls coat color. The brown dog is mated with an albino (all white) dog. The dogs have many puppies. All of the puppies have brown coat color.• Draw a punnett square for this cross and give
the expected genotypic and phenotypic outcomes.
• What are the dominant and recessive alleles? Provide symbols for both alleles.
• What would be the results if these offspring mated with an albino dog? A homozygous brown dog? A heterozygote?
![Page 76: CHAPTER 14 MENDEL AND THE GENE IDEA 1. I. OVERVIEW 2 What genetic principles account for the passing of traits from parents to offspring? The “blending”](https://reader031.fdocuments.net/reader031/viewer/2022032803/56649e205503460f94b0b5c7/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Dihybrid Cross• About 70% of Americans perceive a bitter taste from the
chemical phenylthiocarbamide (PTC). The ability to taste this chemical results from a dominant allele (T) and not being able to taste PTC is the result of having two recessive alleles (t). Albinism is also a single locus trait with normal pigment being dominant (A) and the lack of pigment being recessive (a). A normally pigmented woman who is heterozygous for PTC tasting, has a father who is homozygous for both albinism and PTC tasting. She marries a heterozygous, normally pigmented man who is a taster but who has a mother that does not taste PTC• Give the phenotypic and genotypic ratios of the offspring.
• A blue-eyed, left-handed woman marries a brown-eyed, right handed man who is heterozygous for both traits. Blue eyes and left-handedness are recessive.• Give the phenotypic and genotypic ratios of the offspring.
