Overview: Drawing from the Deck of Genes
• 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)

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• The “particulate” hypothesis is the idea that
parents pass on discrete heritable units
(genes)
• This hypothesis can explain the reappearance
of traits after several generations
• Mendel documented a particulate mechanism
through his experiments with garden peas

Figure 14.1
Concept 14.1: Mendel used the scientific
approach to identify two laws of inheritance
• Mendel discovered the basic principles of
heredity by breeding garden peas in carefully
planned experiments

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Mendel’s Experimental, Quantitative
Approach
• Advantages of pea plants for genetic study
– There are many varieties with distinct heritable
features, or characters (such as flower color);
character variants (such as purple or white
flowers) are called traits
– Mating can be controlled
– Each flower has sperm-producing organs
(stamens) and egg-producing organ (carpel)
– Cross-pollination (fertilization between different
plants) involves dusting one plant with pollen
from another

• Mendel chose to track only those characters
that occurred in two distinct alternative forms
• He also used varieties that were true-breeding
(plants that produce offspring of the same
variety when they self-pollinate)

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• In a typical experiment, Mendel mated two
contrasting, true-breeding varieties, a process
called hybridization
• The true-breeding parents are the P generation
• The hybrid offspring of the P generation are called
the F1 generation
• When F1 individuals self-pollinate or crosspollinate with other F1 hybrids, the F2 generation is
produced

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
The Law of Segregation
• When Mendel crossed contrasting, truebreeding white- and purple-flowered pea plants,
all of the F1 hybrids were purple
• When Mendel crossed the F1 hybrids, many of
the F2 plants had purple flowers, but some had
white
• Mendel discovered a ratio of about three to one,
purple to white flowers, in the F2 generation

• Mendel reasoned that only the purple flower
factor was affecting flower color in the F1 hybrids
• Mendel called the purple flower color a dominant
trait and the white flower color a recessive trait
• The factor for white flowers was not diluted or
destroyed because it reappeared in the F2
generation

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• Mendel observed the same pattern of
inheritance in six other pea plant characters,
each represented by two traits
• What Mendel called a “heritable factor” is what
we now call a gene

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Table 14.1
Mendel’s Model
• Mendel developed a hypothesis to explain the
3:1 inheritance pattern he observed in F 2
offspring
• Four related concepts make up this model
• These concepts can be related to what we now
know about genes and chromosomes

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• First: alternative versions of genes account for
variations in inherited characters
• For example, the gene for flower color in pea
plants exists in two versions, one for purple
flowers and the other for white flowers
• These alternative versions of a gene are now
called alleles
• Each gene resides at a specific locus on a
specific chromosome

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Figure 14.4

Allele for purple flowers

Locus for flower-color gene

Pair of
homologous
chromosomes

Allele for white flowers
• Second: for each character, an organism
inherits two alleles, one from each parent
• Mendel made this deduction without knowing
about the role of chromosomes
• The two alleles at a particular locus may be
identical, as in the true-breeding plants of
Mendel’s P generation
• Alternatively, the two alleles at a locus may
differ, as in the F1 hybrids

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• Third: if the two alleles at a locus differ, then one
(the dominant allele) determines the organism’s
appearance, and the other (the recessive allele)
has no noticeable effect on appearance
• In the flower-color example, the F1 plants had
purple flowers because the allele for that trait is
dominant

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• Fourth: (now known as the law of segregation):
the two alleles for a heritable character separate
(segregate) during gamete formation and end up
in different gametes
• Thus, an egg or a sperm gets only one of the two
alleles that are present in the organism
• This segregation of alleles corresponds to the
distribution of homologous chromosomes to
different gametes in meiosis

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• Mendel’s segregation model accounts for the 3:1
ratio he observed in the F2 generation of his
numerous crosses
• The possible combinations of sperm and egg can
be shown using a Punnett square, a diagram for
predicting the results of a genetic cross between
individuals of known genetic makeup
• A capital letter represents a dominant allele, and a
lowercase letter represents a recessive allele

Useful Genetic Vocabulary
• An organism with two identical alleles for a
character is said to be homozygous for the
gene controlling that character
• An organism that has two different alleles for a
gene is said to be heterozygous for the gene
controlling that character
• Unlike homozygotes, heterozygotes are not
true-breeding

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• Because of the different effects of dominant and
recessive alleles, an organism’s traits do not
always reveal its genetic composition
• Therefore, we distinguish between an organism’s
phenotype, or physical appearance, and its
genotype, or genetic makeup
• In the example of flower color in pea plants, PP
and Pp plants have the same phenotype (purple)
but different genotypes

The Testcross
• How can we tell the genotype of an individual with
the dominant phenotype?
• Such an individual could be either homozygous
dominant or heterozygous
• The answer is to carry out a testcross: breeding
the mystery individual with a homozygous
recessive individual
• If any offspring display the recessive phenotype,
the mystery parent must be heterozygous

The Law of Independent Assortment
• Mendel derived the law of segregation by
following a single character
• The F1 offspring produced in this cross were
monohybrids, individuals that are
heterozygous for one character
• A cross between such heterozygotes is called
a monohybrid cross

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• Mendel identified his second law of inheritance by
following two characters at the same time
• Crossing two true-breeding parents differing in two
characters produces dihybrids in the F1
generation, heterozygous for both characters
• A dihybrid cross, a cross between F1 dihybrids,
can determine whether two characters are
transmitted to offspring as a package or
independently

• Using a dihybrid cross, Mendel developed the
law of independent assortment
• The law of independent assortment states that
each pair of alleles segregates independently of
each other pair of alleles during gamete
formation
• Strictly speaking, this law applies only to genes
on different, nonhomologous chromosomes or
those far apart on the same chromosome
• Genes located near each other on the same
chromosome tend to be inherited together
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Concept 14.2: The laws of probability govern
Mendelian inheritance
• Mendel’s laws of segregation and independent
assortment reflect the rules of probability
• When tossing a coin, the outcome of one toss
has no impact on the outcome of the next toss
• In the same way, the alleles of one gene
segregate into gametes independently of
another gene’s alleles

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
The Multiplication and Addition Rules
Applied to Monohybrid Crosses
• The multiplication rule states that the probability
that two or more independent events will occur
together is the product of their individual
probabilities
• Probability in an F1 monohybrid cross can be
determined using the multiplication rule
• Segregation in a heterozygous plant is like flipping
1
a coin: Each gamete has a 2 chance of carrying
1
the dominant allele and a 2 chance of carrying the
recessive allele

• The addition rule states that the probability that
any one of two or more exclusive events will
occur is calculated by adding together their
individual probabilities
• The rule of addition can be used to figure out the
probability that an F2 plant from a monohybrid
cross will be heterozygous rather than
homozygous

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Solving Complex Genetics Problems with the
Rules of Probability
• We can apply the multiplication and addition
rules to predict the outcome of crosses involving
multiple characters
• A dihybrid or other multicharacter cross is
equivalent to two or more independent
monohybrid crosses occurring simultaneously
• In calculating the chances for various genotypes,
each character is considered separately, and
then the individual probabilities are multiplied

Concept 14.3: Inheritance patterns are often
more complex than predicted by simple
Mendelian genetics
• 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
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Extending Mendelian Genetics for a Single
Gene
• 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

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Degrees of Dominance
• Complete dominance occurs when phenotypes
of the heterozygote and dominant homozygote are
identical
• In incomplete dominance, the phenotype of F1
hybrids is somewhere between the phenotypes of
the two parental varieties
• In codominance, two dominant alleles affect the
phenotype in separate, distinguishable ways

The Relation Between Dominance and
Phenotype
• A dominant allele does not subdue a recessive
allele; alleles don’t interact that way
• Alleles are simply variations in a gene’s
nucleotide sequence
• For any character, dominance/recessiveness
relationships of alleles depend on the level at
which we examine the phenotype

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• Tay-Sachs disease is fatal; a dysfunctional
enzyme causes an accumulation of lipids in the
brain
– 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

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Frequency of Dominant Alleles
• Dominant alleles are not necessarily more
common in populations than recessive alleles
• For example, one baby out of 400 in the United
States is born with extra fingers or toes

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• The allele for this unusual trait is dominant to the
allele for the more common trait of five digits per
appendage
• In this example, the recessive allele is far more
prevalent than the population’s dominant allele

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Multiple Alleles
• Most genes exist in populations in more than two
allelic forms
• For example, the four phenotypes of the ABO
blood group 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.
• The enzyme encoded by the IA allele adds the A
carbohydrate, whereas the enzyme encoded by
the IB allele adds the B carbohydrate; the enzyme
encoded by the i allele adds neither

Pleiotropy
• Most genes have multiple phenotypic effects, a
property called pleiotropy
• For example, pleiotropic alleles are responsible for
the multiple symptoms of certain hereditary
diseases, such as cystic fibrosis and sickle-cell
disease

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Extending Mendelian Genetics for Two or
More Genes
• Some traits may be determined by two or more
genes

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Epistasis
• In epistasis, a gene at one locus alters the
phenotypic expression of a gene at a second
locus
• For example, in Labrador retrievers and many
other mammals, coat color depends on two
genes
• 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

Polygenic Inheritance
• Quantitative characters are those that vary in the
population along a continuum
• Quantitative variation usually indicates polygenic
inheritance, an additive effect of two or more
genes on a single phenotype
• Skin color in humans is an example of polygenic
inheritance

Nature and Nurture: The Environmental
Impact on Phenotype
• Another departure from Mendelian genetics
arises when the phenotype for a character
depends on environment as well as genotype
• The norm of reaction is the phenotypic range
of a genotype influenced by the environment
• For example, hydrangea flowers of the same
genotype range from blue-violet to pink,
depending on soil acidity

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Figure 14.14
Figure 14.14a
Figure 14.14b
• Norms of reaction are generally broadest for
polygenic characters
• Such characters are called multifactorial
because genetic and environmental factors
collectively influence phenotype

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Integrating a Mendelian View of Heredity
and Variation
• An organism’s phenotype includes its physical
appearance, internal anatomy, physiology, and
behavior
• An organism’s phenotype reflects its overall
genotype and unique environmental history

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Concept 14.4: Many human traits follow
Mendelian patterns of inheritance
• Humans are not good subjects for genetic
research
– Generation time is too long
– Parents produce relatively few offspring
– Breeding experiments are unacceptable

• However, basic Mendelian genetics endures
as the foundation of human genetics

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Pedigree Analysis
• A pedigree is a family tree that describes the
interrelationships of parents and children
across generations
• Inheritance patterns of particular traits can be
traced and described using pedigrees

Recessively Inherited Disorders
• Many genetic disorders are inherited in a
recessive manner
• These range from relatively mild to lifethreatening

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
The Behavior of Recessive Alleles
• Recessively inherited disorders show up only in
individuals homozygous for the allele
• Carriers are heterozygous individuals who
carry the recessive allele but are phenotypically
normal; most individuals with recessive
disorders are born to carrier parents
• Albinism is a recessive condition characterized
by a lack of pigmentation in skin and hair

• If a recessive allele that causes a disease is
rare, then the chance of two carriers meeting
and mating is low
• Consanguineous matings (i.e., matings
between close relatives) increase the chance
of mating between two carriers of the same
rare allele
• Most societies and cultures have laws or
taboos against marriages between close
relatives

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Cystic Fibrosis
• Cystic fibrosis is the most common lethal
genetic disease in the United States,striking
one out of every 2,500 people of European
descent
• The cystic fibrosis allele results in defective or
absent chloride transport channels in plasma
membranes leading to a buildup of chloride
ions outside the cell
• Symptoms include mucus buildup in some
internal organs and abnormal absorption of
nutrients in the small intestine
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Sickle-Cell Disease: A Genetic Disorder with
Evolutionary Implications
• Sickle-cell disease affects one out of 400
African-Americans
• The disease is caused by the substitution of a
single amino acid in the hemoglobin protein in
red blood cells
• In homozygous individuals, all hemoglobin is
abnormal (sickle-cell)
• Symptoms include physical weakness, pain,
organ damage, and even paralysis
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Fig. 14-UN1

• Heterozygotes (said to have sickle-cell trait) are
usually healthy but may suffer some symptoms
• About one out of ten African Americans has
sickle cell trait, an unusually high frequency of
an allele with detrimental effects in
homozygotes
• Heterozygotes are less susceptible to the
malaria parasite, so there is an advantage to
being heterozygous

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Dominantly Inherited Disorders
• Some human disorders are caused by
dominant alleles
• Dominant alleles that cause a lethal disease
are rare and arise by mutation
• Achondroplasia is a form of dwarfism caused
by a rare dominant allele

Huntington’s Disease: A Late-Onset Lethal
Disease
• The timing of onset of a disease significantly
affects its inheritance
• Huntington’s disease is a degenerative disease
of the nervous system
• The disease has no obvious phenotypic effects
until the individual is about 35 to 40 years of age
• Once the deterioration of the nervous system
begins the condition is irreversible and fatal

Multifactorial Disorders
• Many diseases, such as heart disease,
diabetes, alcoholism, mental illnesses, and
cancer have both genetic and environmental
components
• Little is understood about the genetic
contribution to most multifactorial diseases

Genetic Testing and Counseling
• Genetic counselors can provide information to
prospective parents concerned about a family
history for a specific disease

© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Counseling Based on Mendelian Genetics
and Probability Rules
• Using family histories, genetic counselors help
couples determine the odds that their children
will have genetic disorders
• Probabilities are predicted on the most
accurate information at the time; predicted
probabilities may change as new information
is available

Relationship among
alleles of a single gene
Complete dominance
of one allele

Description
Heterozygous phenotype
same as that of homozygous dominant

Incomplete dominance Heterozygous phenotype
intermediate between
of either allele
the two homozygous
phenotypes
Codominance

Both phenotypes
expressed in
heterozygotes

  • 1. LECTURE PRESENTATIONS For CAMPBELL BIOLOGY, NINTH EDITION Jane B. Reece, Lisa A. Urry, Michael L. Cain, Steven A. Wasserman, Peter V. Minorsky, Robert B. Jackson Chapter 14 Mendel and the Gene Idea Lectures by Erin Barley Kathleen Fitzpatrick © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 2. Overview: Drawing from the Deck of Genes • 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) © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 3. • The “particulate” hypothesis is the idea that parents pass on discrete heritable units (genes) • This hypothesis can explain the reappearance of traits after several generations • Mendel documented a particulate mechanism through his experiments with garden peas © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 5. Concept 14.1: Mendel used the scientific approach to identify two laws of inheritance • Mendel discovered the basic principles of heredity by breeding garden peas in carefully planned experiments © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 6. Mendel’s Experimental, Quantitative Approach • Advantages of pea plants for genetic study – There are many varieties with distinct heritable features, or characters (such as flower color); character variants (such as purple or white flowers) are called traits – Mating can be controlled – Each flower has sperm-producing organs (stamens) and egg-producing organ (carpel) – Cross-pollination (fertilization between different plants) involves dusting one plant with pollen from another © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 10. • Mendel chose to track only those characters that occurred in two distinct alternative forms • He also used varieties that were true-breeding (plants that produce offspring of the same variety when they self-pollinate) © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 11. • In a typical experiment, Mendel mated two contrasting, true-breeding varieties, a process called hybridization • The true-breeding parents are the P generation • The hybrid offspring of the P generation are called the F1 generation • When F1 individuals self-pollinate or crosspollinate with other F1 hybrids, the F2 generation is produced © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 12. The Law of Segregation • When Mendel crossed contrasting, truebreeding white- and purple-flowered pea plants, all of the F1 hybrids were purple • When Mendel crossed the F1 hybrids, many of the F2 plants had purple flowers, but some had white • Mendel discovered a ratio of about three to one, purple to white flowers, in the F2 generation © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 14. Figure 14.3-2 EXPERIMENT P Generation (true-breeding parents) F1 Generation (hybrids) Purple flowers White flowers All plants had purple flowers Self- or cross-pollination
  • 15. Figure 14.3-3 EXPERIMENT P Generation (true-breeding parents) Purple flowers White flowers F1 Generation (hybrids) All plants had purple flowers Self- or cross-pollination F2 Generation 705 purpleflowered plants 224 white flowered plants
  • 16. • Mendel reasoned that only the purple flower factor was affecting flower color in the F1 hybrids • Mendel called the purple flower color a dominant trait and the white flower color a recessive trait • The factor for white flowers was not diluted or destroyed because it reappeared in the F2 generation © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 17. • Mendel observed the same pattern of inheritance in six other pea plant characters, each represented by two traits • What Mendel called a “heritable factor” is what we now call a gene © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 19. Mendel’s Model • Mendel developed a hypothesis to explain the 3:1 inheritance pattern he observed in F 2 offspring • Four related concepts make up this model • These concepts can be related to what we now know about genes and chromosomes © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 20. • First: alternative versions of genes account for variations in inherited characters • For example, the gene for flower color in pea plants exists in two versions, one for purple flowers and the other for white flowers • These alternative versions of a gene are now called alleles • Each gene resides at a specific locus on a specific chromosome © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 21. Figure 14.4 Allele for purple flowers Locus for flower-color gene Pair of homologous chromosomes Allele for white flowers
  • 22. • Second: for each character, an organism inherits two alleles, one from each parent • Mendel made this deduction without knowing about the role of chromosomes • The two alleles at a particular locus may be identical, as in the true-breeding plants of Mendel’s P generation • Alternatively, the two alleles at a locus may differ, as in the F1 hybrids © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 23. • Third: if the two alleles at a locus differ, then one (the dominant allele) determines the organism’s appearance, and the other (the recessive allele) has no noticeable effect on appearance • In the flower-color example, the F1 plants had purple flowers because the allele for that trait is dominant © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 24. • Fourth: (now known as the law of segregation): the two alleles for a heritable character separate (segregate) during gamete formation and end up in different gametes • Thus, an egg or a sperm gets only one of the two alleles that are present in the organism • This segregation of alleles corresponds to the distribution of homologous chromosomes to different gametes in meiosis © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 25. • Mendel’s segregation model accounts for the 3:1 ratio he observed in the F2 generation of his numerous crosses • The possible combinations of sperm and egg can be shown using a Punnett square, a diagram for predicting the results of a genetic cross between individuals of known genetic makeup • A capital letter represents a dominant allele, and a lowercase letter represents a recessive allele © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

  • 29. Useful Genetic Vocabulary • An organism with two identical alleles for a character is said to be homozygous for the gene controlling that character • An organism that has two different alleles for a gene is said to be heterozygous for the gene controlling that character • Unlike homozygotes, heterozygotes are not true-breeding © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 30. • Because of the different effects of dominant and recessive alleles, an organism’s traits do not always reveal its genetic composition • Therefore, we distinguish between an organism’s phenotype, or physical appearance, and its genotype, or genetic makeup • In the example of flower color in pea plants, PP and Pp plants have the same phenotype (purple) but different genotypes © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 32. The Testcross • How can we tell the genotype of an individual with the dominant phenotype? • Such an individual could be either homozygous dominant or heterozygous • The answer is to carry out a testcross: breeding the mystery individual with a homozygous recessive individual • If any offspring display the recessive phenotype, the mystery parent must be heterozygous © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

  • 34. The Law of Independent Assortment • Mendel derived the law of segregation by following a single character • The F1 offspring produced in this cross were monohybrids, individuals that are heterozygous for one character • A cross between such heterozygotes is called a monohybrid cross © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 35. • Mendel identified his second law of inheritance by following two characters at the same time • Crossing two true-breeding parents differing in two characters produces dihybrids in the F1 generation, heterozygous for both characters • A dihybrid cross, a cross between F1 dihybrids, can determine whether two characters are transmitted to offspring as a package or independently © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

  • 37. • Using a dihybrid cross, Mendel developed the law of independent assortment • The law of independent assortment states that each pair of alleles segregates independently of each other pair of alleles during gamete formation • Strictly speaking, this law applies only to genes on different, nonhomologous chromosomes or those far apart on the same chromosome • Genes located near each other on the same chromosome tend to be inherited together © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 38. Concept 14.2: The laws of probability govern Mendelian inheritance • Mendel’s laws of segregation and independent assortment reflect the rules of probability • When tossing a coin, the outcome of one toss has no impact on the outcome of the next toss • In the same way, the alleles of one gene segregate into gametes independently of another gene’s alleles © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 39. The Multiplication and Addition Rules Applied to Monohybrid Crosses • The multiplication rule states that the probability that two or more independent events will occur together is the product of their individual probabilities • Probability in an F1 monohybrid cross can be determined using the multiplication rule • Segregation in a heterozygous plant is like flipping 1 a coin: Each gamete has a 2 chance of carrying 1 the dominant allele and a 2 chance of carrying the recessive allele © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

  • 41. • The addition rule states that the probability that any one of two or more exclusive events will occur is calculated by adding together their individual probabilities • The rule of addition can be used to figure out the probability that an F2 plant from a monohybrid cross will be heterozygous rather than homozygous © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 42. Solving Complex Genetics Problems with the Rules of Probability • We can apply the multiplication and addition rules to predict the outcome of crosses involving multiple characters • A dihybrid or other multicharacter cross is equivalent to two or more independent monohybrid crosses occurring simultaneously • In calculating the chances for various genotypes, each character is considered separately, and then the individual probabilities are multiplied © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 43. Figure 14.UN01 Probability of YYRR = 1/4 (probability of YY) × 1/4 (RR) = 1/16 Probability of YyRR = 1/2 (Yy) × 1/4 (RR) = 1/8

  • 45. Concept 14.3: Inheritance patterns are often more complex than predicted by simple Mendelian genetics • 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 © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 46. Extending Mendelian Genetics for a Single Gene • 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 © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 47. Degrees of Dominance • Complete dominance occurs when phenotypes of the heterozygote and dominant homozygote are identical • In incomplete dominance, the phenotype of F1 hybrids is somewhere between the phenotypes of the two parental varieties • In codominance, two dominant alleles affect the phenotype in separate, distinguishable ways © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

  • 51. The Relation Between Dominance and Phenotype • A dominant allele does not subdue a recessive allele; alleles don’t interact that way • Alleles are simply variations in a gene’s nucleotide sequence • For any character, dominance/recessiveness relationships of alleles depend on the level at which we examine the phenotype © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 52. • Tay-Sachs disease is fatal; a dysfunctional enzyme causes an accumulation of lipids in the brain – 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 © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 53. Frequency of Dominant Alleles • Dominant alleles are not necessarily more common in populations than recessive alleles • For example, one baby out of 400 in the United States is born with extra fingers or toes © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 54. • The allele for this unusual trait is dominant to the allele for the more common trait of five digits per appendage • In this example, the recessive allele is far more prevalent than the population’s dominant allele © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 55. Multiple Alleles • Most genes exist in populations in more than two allelic forms • For example, the four phenotypes of the ABO blood group 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. • The enzyme encoded by the IA allele adds the A carbohydrate, whereas the enzyme encoded by the IB allele adds the B carbohydrate; the enzyme encoded by the i allele adds neither © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

  • 57. Pleiotropy • Most genes have multiple phenotypic effects, a property called pleiotropy • For example, pleiotropic alleles are responsible for the multiple symptoms of certain hereditary diseases, such as cystic fibrosis and sickle-cell disease © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 58. Extending Mendelian Genetics for Two or More Genes • Some traits may be determined by two or more genes © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 59. Epistasis • In epistasis, a gene at one locus alters the phenotypic expression of a gene at a second locus • For example, in Labrador retrievers and many other mammals, coat color depends on two genes • 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 © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 61. Polygenic Inheritance • Quantitative characters are those that vary in the population along a continuum • Quantitative variation usually indicates polygenic inheritance, an additive effect of two or more genes on a single phenotype • Skin color in humans is an example of polygenic inheritance © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 63. Nature and Nurture: The Environmental Impact on Phenotype • Another departure from Mendelian genetics arises when the phenotype for a character depends on environment as well as genotype • The norm of reaction is the phenotypic range of a genotype influenced by the environment • For example, hydrangea flowers of the same genotype range from blue-violet to pink, depending on soil acidity © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 67. • Norms of reaction are generally broadest for polygenic characters • Such characters are called multifactorial because genetic and environmental factors collectively influence phenotype © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 68. Integrating a Mendelian View of Heredity and Variation • An organism’s phenotype includes its physical appearance, internal anatomy, physiology, and behavior • An organism’s phenotype reflects its overall genotype and unique environmental history © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 69. Concept 14.4: Many human traits follow Mendelian patterns of inheritance • Humans are not good subjects for genetic research – Generation time is too long – Parents produce relatively few offspring – Breeding experiments are unacceptable • However, basic Mendelian genetics endures as the foundation of human genetics © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 70. Pedigree Analysis • A pedigree is a family tree that describes the interrelationships of parents and children across generations • Inheritance patterns of particular traits can be traced and described using pedigrees © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.

  • 77. Recessively Inherited Disorders • Many genetic disorders are inherited in a recessive manner • These range from relatively mild to lifethreatening © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 78. The Behavior of Recessive Alleles • Recessively inherited disorders show up only in individuals homozygous for the allele • Carriers are heterozygous individuals who carry the recessive allele but are phenotypically normal; most individuals with recessive disorders are born to carrier parents • Albinism is a recessive condition characterized by a lack of pigmentation in skin and hair © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 81. • If a recessive allele that causes a disease is rare, then the chance of two carriers meeting and mating is low • Consanguineous matings (i.e., matings between close relatives) increase the chance of mating between two carriers of the same rare allele • Most societies and cultures have laws or taboos against marriages between close relatives © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 82. Cystic Fibrosis • Cystic fibrosis is the most common lethal genetic disease in the United States,striking one out of every 2,500 people of European descent • The cystic fibrosis allele results in defective or absent chloride transport channels in plasma membranes leading to a buildup of chloride ions outside the cell • Symptoms include mucus buildup in some internal organs and abnormal absorption of nutrients in the small intestine © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 83. Sickle-Cell Disease: A Genetic Disorder with Evolutionary Implications • Sickle-cell disease affects one out of 400 African-Americans • The disease is caused by the substitution of a single amino acid in the hemoglobin protein in red blood cells • In homozygous individuals, all hemoglobin is abnormal (sickle-cell) • Symptoms include physical weakness, pain, organ damage, and even paralysis © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 84. Fig. 14-UN1 • Heterozygotes (said to have sickle-cell trait) are usually healthy but may suffer some symptoms • About one out of ten African Americans has sickle cell trait, an unusually high frequency of an allele with detrimental effects in homozygotes • Heterozygotes are less susceptible to the malaria parasite, so there is an advantage to being heterozygous © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 85. Dominantly Inherited Disorders • Some human disorders are caused by dominant alleles • Dominant alleles that cause a lethal disease are rare and arise by mutation • Achondroplasia is a form of dwarfism caused by a rare dominant allele © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 88. Huntington’s Disease: A Late-Onset Lethal Disease • The timing of onset of a disease significantly affects its inheritance • Huntington’s disease is a degenerative disease of the nervous system • The disease has no obvious phenotypic effects until the individual is about 35 to 40 years of age • Once the deterioration of the nervous system begins the condition is irreversible and fatal © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
  • 89. Multifactorial Disorders • Many diseases, such as heart disease, diabetes, alcoholism, mental illnesses, and cancer have both genetic and environmental components • Little is understood about the genetic contribution to most multifactorial diseases © 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
