10.6 Gene Expression Can Appear to Alter Mendelian Ratios
A. Incomplete Dominance and Codominance Add Phenotype Classes
• Incomplete dominance– Heterozygote has 3rd
intermediate phenotype– Crossing of 2 pink
snapdragons yields red, white or pink offspring
Figure 10.14 Incomplete Dominance.

10.6 Gene Expression Can Appear to Alter Mendelian Ratios
A. Incomplete Dominance and Codominance Add Phenotype Classes
• Codominance– 2 different alleles expressed together– Human ABO blood type
• I gene – IA, IB, I – 3 alelles• A and B are codominant

B. Some Inheritance Patterns Are Especially Difficult to Interpret
• Pleiotropy– One gene has multiple effect on the phenotype– One protein important in different pathways or
tissues– Marfan syndrome– Porphyria variegata

10.6 Gene Expression Can Appear to Alter Mendelian Ratios
B. Some Inheritance Patterns Are Especially Difficult to Interpret
• Protein interactions– Can cause same phenotype from different
mutations– Epistasis- one gene’s product affects the
expression of another gene• ABO blood type inconsistencies• Paternity confusions

10.6 Mastering Concepts
Compare and contrast dominant, recessive, incomplete dominant, and
codominant
10.7 Sex-Linked Genes Have Unique Inheritance Patterns
• Huntington Disease, cystic fibrosis and others from genes found on autosomes
– Affect both sexes equally• Red-green color blindness, hemophilia genes
are found on sex chromosomes– Affect one sex more than another– Called sex-linked
10.7 Sex-Linked Genes Have Unique Inheritance Patterns
A. X and Y Chromosomes Determine Sex in Humans
• Females XX• Males XY

10.7 Sex-Linked Genes Have Unique Inheritance Patterns
A. X and Y Chromosomes Determine Sex in Humans
• Y chromosome plays largest role in sex determination
– SRY gene– Few Y-linked disorders
• X-linked traits more common
10.7 Sex-Linked Genes Have Unique Inheritance Patterns
B. X-Linked Recessive Disorders Affect More Males Than Females
• Thomas Hunt Morgan and fruit flies• Male white-eyed flies
– Gene must be on X chromosome– Sex of parent mattered in crosses

10.7 Sex-Linked Genes Have Unique Inheritance Patterns
B. X-Linked Recessive Disorders Affect More Males Than Females
• Female shows recessive X-linked trait only if she inherits 2 recessive alleles
• Male expresses whatever is on his only X• Hemophilia A
– X-linked recessive inheritance

C. X Inactivation Prevents “Double Dosing” of Proteins
• Males have a “double dose” of every gene on X
• Female cells shut off one X– Barr body– Random which X shut down– Calico and tortoiseshell cats are always female

10.7 Mastering Concepts
Why do males and females express recessive X-linked alleles differently?
10.8 Pedigrees Show Modes of Inheritance
• Genes on autosomes exhibit– Autosomal dominant
• Appears in every generation
– Autosomal recessive• May seem to skip generations• Carriers have normal phenotype
• X-linked conditions have unique patterns• Pedigrees can be useful

Clicker Question
• In determining the inheritance mode of a disorder, which factors below can cause problems?
A.Humans typically have only a few childrenB.Codominance or incomplete dominanceC.Protein interactions or epistasisD.All of the above
10.9 Most Traits Are Influenced by the Environments and Multiple Genes
A. The Environment Can Alter the Phenotype• A gene may be active in one circumstance but
inactive in another• Temperature in Siamese cats
• Fetal alcohol syndrome – exposure to alcohol alters phenotype
10.9 Most Traits Are Influenced by the Environments and Multiple Genes
B. Polygenic Traits Depend on More Than One Gene
• Phenotype reflects the activities of more than one gene– Eye color– Male pattern baldness
• Bell-shaped curve or continuum of gene expression

B. Polygenic Traits Depend on More Than One Gene
• Bell-shaped curve or continuum of gene expression

10.9 Mastering Concepts
How can the environment affect a phenotype?
10.10 Investigating Life: Heredity and the Hungry Hordes
• Pink bollworm (Pectinophora gossypiella)• Pink caterpillars damage cotton crop• Soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis or Bt
– Produces protein toxic to insects– Not toxic to humans– Used in organic farming
Figure 10.26 Hungry Caterpillar.
10.10 Investigating Life: Heredity and the Hungry Hordes
• Produce genetically modified crops that express Bt toxin
• Farmers must plant non-Bt buffer – Prevents selective pressure– Bt resistance genes are recessive

What do you predict will happen to the incidence of resistance alleles in pink bollworm populations if farmers
choose not to plant the required refuge?
