Chapter 14 Mendel and the Gene Idea
Inheritance • The passing of traits from parents to offspring. • Humans have known about inheritance for thousands of years.
Genetics • The scientific study of the inheritance. • Genetics is a relatively “new” science (about 150 years).
Genetic Theories 1. Blending Theory traits were like paints and mixed evenly from both parents. 2. Incubation Theory only one parent controlled the traits of the children. Ex: Spermists and Ovists
3. Particulate Model parents pass on traits as discrete units that retain their identities in the offspring.
Gregor Mendel • Father of Modern Genetics.
• Mendel’s paper published in 1866, but was not recognized by Science until the early 1900’s.
Reasons for Mendel's Success • Used an experimental approach. • Applied mathematics to the study of natural phenomena. • Kept good records.
• Mendel was a pea picker. • He used peas as his study organism.
Why Use Peas? • • • Short life span. Bisexual. Many traits known. Cross- and self-pollinating. (You can eat the failures).
Cross-pollination • Two parents. • Results in hybrid offspring where the offspring may be different than the parents.
Self-pollination • One flower as both parents. • Natural event in peas. • Results in pure-bred offspring where the offspring are identical to the parents.
Mendel's Work • Used seven characters, each with two expressions or traits. • Example: • Character - height • Traits - tall or short.
Monohybrid or Mendelian Crosses • Crosses that work with a single character at a time. Example - Tall X short
P Generation • The Parental generation or the first two individuals used in a cross. Example - Tall X short • Mendel used reciprocal crosses, where the parents alternated for the trait.
Offspring • F 1 - first filial generation. • F 2 - second filial generation, bred by crossing two F 1 plants together or allowing a F 1 to self-pollinate.
Results - Summary • In all crosses, the F 1 generation showed only one of the traits regardless of which was male or female. • The other trait reappeared in the F 2 at ~25% (3: 1 ratio).
Mendel's Hypothesis 1. Genes can have alternate versions called alleles. 2. Each offspring inherits two alleles, one from each parent.
Mendel's Hypothesis 3. If the two alleles differ, the dominant allele is expressed. The recessive allele remains hidden unless the dominant allele is absent. Comment - do not use the terms “strongest” to describe the dominant allele.
Allele for purple Alleleflowers Locus for flower-color Purple gene Allele for White white flowers Homologous pair of chromosomes
Mendel's Hypothesis 4. The two alleles for each trait separate during gamete formation and end up in different games. This now called: Mendel's Law of Segregation
Law of Segregation
Mendel’s Experiments • Showed that the Particulate Model best fit the results.
Vocabulary • Phenotype - the physical appearance of the organism. • Genotype - the genetic makeup of the organism, usually shown in a code. • T = tall • t = short
Helpful Vocabulary • Homozygous - When the two alleles are the same (TT/tt). • Heterozygous- When the two alleles are different (Tt).
6 Mendelian Crosses are Possible Cross Genotype Phenotype TT X tt all Tt all Dom Tt X Tt 1 TT: 2 Tt: 1 tt 3 Dom: 1 Res TT X TT all Dom tt X tt all Res TT X Tt 1 TT: 1 Tt all Dom Tt X tt 1 Tt: 1 tt 1 Dom: 1 Res
Test Cross • Cross of a suspected heterozygote with a homozygous recessive. • Ex: T_ X tt If TT - all dominant If Tt - 1 Dominant: 1 Recessive
Dihybrid Cross • Cross with two genetic traits. • Need 4 letters to code for the cross. • Ex: Tt. Rr • Each Gamete - Must get 1 letter for each trait. • Ex. TR, Tr, etc.
Number of Kinds of Gametes • Critical to calculating the results of higher level crosses. • Look for the number of heterozygous traits.
Equation The formula 2 n can be used, where “n” = the number of heterozygous traits. Ex: Tt. Rr, n=2 22 or 4 different kinds of gametes are possible. TR, t. R, Tr, tr
Dihybrid Cross Tt. Rr X Tt. Rr Each parent can produce 4 types of gametes. TR, Tr, t. R, tr Cross is a 4 X 4 with 16 possible offspring.
Results • 9 Tall, Red flowered • 3 Tall, white flowered • 3 short, Red flowered • 1 short, white flowered Or: 9: 3: 3: 1
Law of Independent Assortment • The inheritance of 1 st genetic trait is NOT dependent on the inheritance of the 2 nd trait. • Inheritance of height is independent of the inheritance of flower color.
Comment • Ratio of Tall to short is 3: 1 • Ratio of Red to white is 3: 1 • The cross is really a product of the ratio of each trait multiplied together. (3: 1) X (3: 1)
Probability • Genetics is a specific application of the rules of probability. • Probability - the chance that an event will occur out of the total number of possible events.
Genetic Ratios • The monohybrid “ratios” are actually the “probabilities” of the results of random fertilization. Ex: 3: 1 75% chance of the dominant 25% chance of the recessive
Rule of Multiplication or Product Rule • The probability that two alleles will come together at fertilization, is equal to the product of their separate probabilities.
Example: Tt. Rr X Tt. Rr • The probability of getting a tall offspring is ¾. • The probability of getting a red offspring is ¾. • The probability of getting a tall red offspring is ¾ x ¾ = 9/16
Comment • Use the Product Rule to calculate the results of complex crosses rather than work out the Punnett Squares. • Ex: Ttrr. GG X Tt. Rrgg
Solution “T’s” = Tt X Tt = 3: 1 “R’s” = rr X Rr = 1: 1 “G’s” = GG x gg = 1: 0 Product is: (3: 1) X (1: 0 ) = 3: 3: 1: 1
Dominance vs Phenotype • A dominant allele does not subdue a recessive allele; alleles don’t interact. • Alleles are simply variations in a gene’s nucleotide sequence.
Variations on Mendel 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Incomplete Dominance Codominance Multiple Alleles Epistasis Polygenic Inheritance
Incomplete Dominance • When the F 1 hybrids show a phenotype somewhere between the phenotypes of the two parents. • Often a “dose” effect Ex. Red X White snapdragons F 1 = all pink F 2 = 1 red: 2 pink: 1 white
Result • No hidden Recessive • 3 phenotypes and 3 genotypes (Hint! – often a “dose” effect) • Red = CR CR • Pink = CRCW • White = CWCW
Another example
Codominance • Both alleles are expressed equally in the phenotype. • Ex. MN blood group • MM • MN • NN
Result • No hidden Recessive • 3 phenotypes and 3 genotypes (but not a “dose” effect)
Multiple Alleles • When there are more than 2 alleles for a trait • Ex. ABO blood group • IA - A type antigen • IB - B type antigen • i - no antigen
Result • Multiple genotypes and phenotypes. • Very common event in many traits.
Alleles and Blood Types Type A B AB O Genotypes IA IA or IAi IB IB or IBi I AIB ii
Comment • Rh blood factor is a separate factor from the ABO blood group. • Rh+ = dominant • Rh- = recessive • A+ blood = dihybrid trait
Epistasis • When 1 gene locus alters the expression of a second locus. • Ex: • 1 st gene: C = color, c = albino • 2 nd gene: B = Brown, b = black
Gerbils
In Gerbils Cc. Bb X Cc. Bb Brown X Brown F 1 = 9 brown (C_B_) 3 black (C_bb) 4 albino (cc__)
Result • Ratios often altered from the expected. • One trait may act as a recessive because it is “hidden” by the second trait.
Polygenic Inheritance • Factors that are expressed as continuous variation. • Lack clear boundaries between the phenotype classes. • Ex: skin color, height
Genetic Basis • Several genes govern the inheritance of the trait. • Ex: Skin color is likely controlled by at least 4 genes. Each dominant gives a darker skin.
Result • Mendelian ratios fail. • Traits tend to "run" in families. • Offspring often intermediate between the parental types. • Trait shows a “bell-curve” or continuous variation.

Dominant Trait Recessive Trait
Human Recessive Disorders • Several thousand known: • • • Albinism Sickle Cell Anemia Tay-Sachs Disease Cystic Fibrosis PKU Galactosemia
Sickle-cell Disease • Most common inherited disease among African-Americans. • Single amino acid substitution results in malformed hemoglobin. • Reduced O 2 carrying capacity. • Codominant inheritance.
Tay-Sachs • Eastern European Jews. • Brain cells unable to metabolize type of lipid, accumulation of causes brain damage. • Death in infancy or early childhood.
Dominance vs Phenotype • For any character, dominance/recessiveness relationships of alleles depend on the level at which we examine the phenotype.
Example -Tay-Sachs • Disease is fatal; a dysfunctional enzyme causes an accumulation of lipids in the brain. • At the organismal level, the allele is recessive. Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc. , publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings
Tay-Sachs • At the biochemical level, the phenotype (i. e. , the enzyme activity level) is incompletely dominant. • At the molecular level, the alleles are codominant.
Cystic Fibrosis • Most common lethal genetic disease in the U. S. • Most frequent in Caucasian populations (1/20 a carrier). • Produces defective chloride channels in membranes.
Recessive Pattern • Usually rare. • Skips generations. • Occurrence increases with consaguineous matings. • Often an enzyme defect.
Human Dominant Disorders • Less common then recessives. • Ex: • Huntington’s disease • Achondroplasia • Familial Hypercholsterolemia
Inheritance Pattern • Each affected individual had one affected parent. • Doesn’t skip generations. • Homozygous cases show worse phenotype symptoms. • May have post-maturity onset of symptoms.
Genetic Screening • Risk assessment for an individual inheriting a trait. • Uses probability to calculate the risk.
General Formula R=FXMXD R = risk F = probability that the female carries the gene. M = probability that the male carries the gene. D = Disease risk under best conditions.
Example • Wife has an albino parent. • Husband has no albinism in his pedigree. • Risk for an albino child?
Risk Calculation • Wife = probability is 1. 0 that she has the allele. • Husband = with no family record, probability is near 0. • Disease = this is a recessive trait, so risk is Aa X Aa =. 25 • R = 1 X 0 X. 25 • R=0
Risk Calculation • Assume husband is a carrier, then the risk is: R = 1 X. 25 R =. 25 There is a. 25 chance that any child will be albino.
Common Mistake • If risk is. 25, then as long as we don’t have 4 kids, we won’t get any with the trait. • Risk is. 25 for each child. It is not dependent on what happens to other children.
Carrier Recognition • Fetal Testing • Amniocentesis • Chorionic villi sampling • Newborn Screening
Fetal Testing • Biochemical Tests • Chromosome Analysis
Amniocentesis • Administered between 11 14 weeks. • Extract amnionic fluid = cells and fluid. • Biochemical tests and karyotype. • Requires culture time for cells.
Chorionic Villi Sampling • Administered between 8 - 10 weeks. • Extract tissue from chorion (placenta). • Slightly greater risk but no culture time required.
Newborn Screening • Blood tests for recessive conditions that can have the phenotypes treated to avoid damage. Genotypes are NOT changed. • Ex. PKU
Newborn Screening • Required by law in all states. • Tests 1 - 6 conditions. • Required of “home” births too.
Multifactorial Diseases • Where Genetic and Environment Factors interact to cause the Disease. • Becoming more widely recognized in medicine.
Ex. Heart Disease • • Genetic Diet Exercise Bacterial Infection
Genes & Environment
Summary • Know the Mendelian crosses and their patterns. • Be able to work simple genetic problems (practice). • Watch genetic vocabulary. • Be able to read pedigree charts.
Summary • Be able to recognize and work with some of the “common” human trait examples.
