Blending Hypothesis
Used in early 1800’s to explain how offspring inherit traits from parents.
A yellow flower plant crossed with a red flower plant will produce plants that have orange flowers
Orange flower plants will produce orange flower plants
But there were many exceptions like a red flower plant that produced yellow flowered offspring

Gregor Mendel
Gregor Mendel was an Austrian monk who is often called the "father of genetics" for his study of the inheritance of traits in pea plants.
• Between 1856 and 1863 Mendel cultivated and tested some 28,000 pea plants.
• He was the first person to predict how traits are transferred from one generation to the next.
• Applied an experimental approach to studying genetics.
• He studied only one trait at a time to control variables, analyzed data mathematically. Statistics.

Why Pea plants?
Pea Plants have a short life cycle.
Pea plants self fertilized their own flowers.
They are easy to see and recognize the traits.

Mendel’s 7 pea plant traits
Flower color
Flower position
Seed color
Seed shape
Pod shape
Pod color
Stem length
Trait – a specific inherited characteristic that can vary in individuals

True breeding Pea plants
Because pea plants are self pollinating they inherit all their characteristics from their single parent. Mendel noticed that tall plants always produced seeds that grew to be tall and that short plants always produced seeds that produced short plants. All yellow seed plants produced plants with yellow seeds. In other words all his plants were true-breeding
![Page 8: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Mendel’s experiment
Mendel cut off the male flower reproductive parts to prevent self pollination.
He then dusted pollen from another plant onto the flower – cross pollination.
Produced seeds that had 2 different parents.

Each of the seven pea plant traits had two contrasting characters.
Flower color purple or white
Flower position axial or terminal
Seed color yellow or green
Seed shape round or wrinkled
Pod shape inflated or constricted
Pod color yellow or green
Stem length tall or short (dwarf)
Mendel crossed plants with the contrasting traits.
Monohybrid crosses – study one trait at a time
![Page 11: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
When Mendel crossed a purple and a white flower he always got a purple flower for the offspring
![Page 12: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Mendel called each of the original pairs of plants the parental (P) generation.
The offspring from these crosses were known as the F1 generation. (F for filial, Latin for son or daughter)
Mendel noticed that all the offspring only had the character of one of the parents. The character of the other parent seemed to disappear.
![Page 13: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Mendel’s 1st PrincipleThe law of unit factors - each organism
has two factors for each of its traits
• We now know these factors are genes located on the chromosomes.
• These different gene forms are called alleles.
• Alleles are located in different copies of a chromosome; one from ♂ parent, one from ♀ parent
![Page 14: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Gene is the chemical factor that determines traits. Flower color gene
Alleles are the different forms of a gene.
purple flower allele or white flower allele
![Page 15: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Mendel’s 2nd Principle
The law of dominance - only one factor was visible in the F1 generation, the dominant trait
The dominant trait is the visible or observable trait.
The recessive trait is the hidden trait, masked by the dominant trait.
![Page 16: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Mendel allowed the F1 generation to self pollinate and planted the resulting seeds
When the F2 plants grew he observed that about three-fourths of the F2 plants had the dominant trait and one-fourth had the recessive trait
![Page 17: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
![Page 18: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
![Page 19: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Mendel’s 3rd Principle
Mendel concluded that the paired factors separate during the formation of gametes and that when 2 gametes combine during fertilization the offspring have two factors for each trait. This is called the Law of Segregation– a pair of factors is separated or segregated during the formation of gametes
![Page 20: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Mendel crossed plants that differed in two traits such as flower color and seed color. His data showed that the dominant traits do not have to appear together. A yellow seed (dominant) could appear in a plant with wrinkled seeds (recessive). Mendel concluded that factors for individual characteristics are not connected.
![Page 21: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
![Page 22: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
![Page 23: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
![Page 24: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Mendel’s 4th Principle
Factors for different traits separate independently of one another during the formation of gametes. This is called the Law of independent assortment.
![Page 25: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Mendel and Modern Genetics
Most of what Mendel concluded agrees with what we now know about molecular genetics. Molecular genetics is the study and function of chromosomes and genes.
Mendel’s Law of independent assortment is supported by the independent assortment of chromosomes to gametes during meiosis.
![Page 26: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Genotype
An organism’s genetic makeup is its genotype. The genotype consists of alleles that the organism inherits from both parents.
Letters are used to represent alleles. Capital letters refer to dominant alleles and lowercase letters refer to recessive alleles.
The actual letter used to selected to represent an allele is typically the first letter of the dominant trait. Like P for purple flower and p for white flower.
![Page 27: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Genotype vs. Phenotype
The genotype for a plant with purple flowers maybe PP or Pp because the P allele is dominant.
The genotype for a plant with white flowers an only be pp.
An organism’s appearance is its phenotype. The phenotype of a PP or a Pp plant is purple flowers.
The phenotype of a plant with pp is white flowers.
![Page 28: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Homozygous Vs Heterozygous
When both alleles of a pair are alike the organism is homozygous.
PP homozygous dominant
pp homozygous recessive
When both alleles of a pair are different the organism is heterozygous
like Pp
![Page 29: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Probability
Probability is the likelihood of that a specific event will occur.
number of times an event is expected to happenProbability
number of times an event could happen
Probability can be expressed a a percentage, a decimal or a fraction eg. 50%, 0.50 or 1/2
![Page 30: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Probability
In Mendel’s experiment the dominant trait of yellow seed color appeared in the F2generation 6,022 times and the green seed color appeared 2,001 times. The total number of individuals was 8,023 (6,022 + 2,001).
The probability that the dominant yellow seed color will appear is 6,022 3
0.75 or 75% or 8,023 4
![Page 31: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Punnett Squares
The gene combinations that might result from a genetic cross can be determined by drawing a diagram known as a Punnett square. Punnett squares can be used to predict and compare the genetic variations that will result from a cross.
The types of gametes produced by each parent are shown along the top (for males) and along the left side (for females). The possible gene combinations for the offspring, appear in the four boxes that make up the square

Test cross
How can you determine whether on organism with a dominant trait is homozygous dominant or heterozygous? Perform a test cross with a homozygous recessive organism.
![Page 36: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)

Dihybrid crosses
Crossing organisms with 2 different traits
The principle of independent assortment states that during gamete formation any allele for one trait can be paired with either allele for another trait
Punnett squares with 16 blocks can be used to determine the probability of the offspring.

Multiple Alleles
For many genes several alleles exist. Like blood type. A carbohydrate chain seen on the membrane of Red Blood cells.
IA-allele carbohydrate A on red blood cells.
IB-allele carbohydrate B on red blood cells
i-neither allele recessive to both IA & IB
Both IA & IB are dominant and are referred to as codominant because both traits are expressed in individuals with bothe A and B alleles
![Page 47: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)

Polygenetic InheritanceMany traits are affected by multiple genesLike height, skin color, intelligence, and
personalityExample suppose genes A, B & C which are
dominant control dark skin pigmentation. Genes a, b & c are recessive and control light pigmentation. There would be 64 possible combinations. AABBCC has the maximum amount of melanin and very dark skin. aabbcc has the lowest amount of melanin and very light skin. A person with AaBbCc would have an intermediate skin color

Poylgenetic Inheritance
When there is a lot of variation in a trait like skin color, or height than it is usually polygenetic Inheritance and multiple genes are responsible for the trait.
![Page 54: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Genes and the EnvironmentAn individuals genotype can depend on the
environment and their genes.Nutrition, exercise, sunlight, illness can
result in changes in phenotype.Siamese cats and Himalayan rabbits coat
color is affected by temperature. Colder regions of their bodies have darker coat color.
Bothe genotype and environmental factors can play a role in phenotype
![Page 55: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Meiosis and Mendel
Chromosome theory of Inheritance states that genes are on chromosomes and the behavior of chromosomes during meiosis and fertilization accounts for inheritance patterns.
Chromosomes undergo segregation and independent assortment during meiosis and support Mendel’s two principles of the same name.
![Page 56: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Crossing over
During meiosis and prophase I homologous chromosomes pair up and genetic information can be exchanged between chromatids. The alleles for a gene for a particular trait reside at the same location called the gene loci. If an individual has the same alleles on both homologous chromosomes at the gene loci then they are considered homozygous and heterozygous if the alleles at a gene loci are different.
![Page 57: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/57.jpg)
![Page 58: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Genetic linkage and crossing over
The only way alleles on the same chromosome could assort themselves independently is if crossing over occurs in meiosis and separates them.
The tendency for alleles on one chromosome to be inherited together is called genetic linkage. The closer two genes are on a chromosome the greater the genetic linkage. The farther apart the genes are on the chromosome the more likely that a crossover event will separate them.
![Page 59: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)

Sex-Linked Traits
Genes located on sex chromosomes are sex-linked genes.
Thomas Hunt Morgan studied fruit flies. Most fruit flies have red eyes, white eyes are very rare.
He crossed a white eyed male with a red eyed female all offspring were red eyed red eyes were dominant.
![Page 61: Unit 7 Medelian Genetics](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062308/55a83b251a28abff768b4828/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
