Darwin's
Menedelian
What are Darwin's 3 Theories of evolution?
1) Principal of Viaration
2) Principal of Heredity
3) Principal of Natural Selection
What is the Principal of Viaration?
there are variations in morphology, physiology, behavior among individuals within any population.
What is the Principal of Heredity?
Relatives resemble each other more than they resemble unrealted individuals.
What is the Principal of Natural Selection?
Some forms or individuals are more successful at survival and reproduction than others in a given environment.
What are the 4 important parameters associated with populations?
1. Population Size
2. Mating System
3. Selection Pressure(the higher the pressure the fewer alleles will move on to next generation and vice-a-versa)
4. Environmental Factors
What are breeding individuals?
They are the individuals of a population that actually contribute to the reproduction of the next generation.
What is the difference between Fixation and Polymorphism?
Fixation- is the stage of no alleles at a locus in a population
Polymorphism- is if there is more than one allele at a specific locus in a population
The polymorphism or genetic diversity is the potential for genetic improvement.
The polymorphism or genetic diversity is the potential for genetic improvement.
What are the differences between Allele and Genotype Frequencies?
Allele Frequences are the porportion of an allele in a population.
Genotype Frequency are the porportion of a genotype at a locus in a population
What is Heterozygosity?
It is the Proportion of heterozygotus individuals at a locus in a population.
What is the Hardy-Weinberg Law?
It is the allele frequencies in a population will not change generation after generation.
What are the 5 Assumptions that all have to be met to have a Hardy-Weinberg situation?
1) no selection
2) no mutation
3) no migrations
4) infantily large
5) random selection of mates
1) there is NO SELECTION : all individuals of the population survive at equal rates and contribute equal numbersto the gene pool
2) There is NO MUTATION : no new alleles are creates
3) There is NO MIGRATIONS: no one moves into or out of the population
4) The population is INFANTILY LARGE: there can be no genetic drift by chance
5) Individuals choose their mates AT RANDOM
:)
if selection is occuring in a population then some phenotypes are more fit than others and they will have more offspring
:)
What is the difference bewteen Inbred and outbred populations.
Inbred is when mating between individuals with common ancestors is much more frequent than by chance.
Outbred is when mating between relatives is by chance or less common
What is inbreeding Coefficient?
Is the Probability of two alleles at any gene/locus in an individual are identical by descent.
What is it called when TWO alleles of a locus in an individual are both descended from an identical DNA molecule?
It is called :
Homozygosity by Descent or
Identity by Descent
What are some causes of inbreeding?
1)If there is a "loop" in a pedigree drawing, there is possibility of inbreeding
2)If the alleles are passed down in both pathways of a loop are the alleles that cause inbreeding
The inbreeding coefficient in a closed population will always increase
The inbreeding cofficient in a closed population will always increase
Inbreeding coefficient depends on the __________ size.__________ the population size can reduce the increment of inbreeding in the the population, but it cannot ____ the previous inbreeding.
Population
Increasing
Undo
Inbreeding ___________ in each generation and it ______ be reduced in a _____ population
Accumulates
Cannot
Closed
Why is inbreeding harmful?
it is due to rare recessive alleles that become homozygous.
Does intensive selection increase inbreeding coefficient even though mating among sibs and close relatives is avoided?
yes, selection reduces the effective population size in each generation. Therefore the possibility of mating between relatived individuals increases
How can breeders reduce the incrememnt of inbreeding in their breeding stocks?
1) Maintain a large population
2) Avoid mating among close relatives
3) Lower selection intensity
4) Line crosses
Why is inbreeding bad for breeding?
1) Health problems due to recessive alleles: disease susceptibility low reproduction and genetics defects
2) Reduces genetic diversity
What is the difference between Simple and Complex traits?
Simple traits - are changed by alternative genotypes simple one gene will cause a change this is not affected by the enviornment
Complex traits - are controlled by mulit genes which are influenced by environmental factors
What is the difference between Discontinuous and Continuous traits?
Discontinuous - are the traita which phenotypes are distributed into a range of classes (when talking about eggs you can have 1or 50 but not 23.4 (whole numbers only))
Continuous- are the traits which phenotypes are measured in a continuous scals (When talking about weight numbers like 23.5 or 66.9 NOT whole numbers)
What are the 4 things that describe Simple Traits?
1) Rare
2) One or Two Genes
3) No environmantal Effects
4) Characteristic Phenotypes
What are the 4 things that describe Complex Traits?
1) Common
2) Mulit Genes
3) Environmantal Effects
4) Discontinuous or Continuous Phentypes
What is Quantitative Genetics?
It is a science that studies the modes of inheritance of complex or quantitative traits.
Why are Quantitative Traits refered to as quantitative traits?
It is becuase most of the complex traits are often measured and given a quantitative value.
What are the economic traits of poultry? and what types of traits are they?
Weight gain and Fat content of meat
They are quantitative traits
What are the two measurements of poultry economic traits?
Invasive and Non-invasive
What is the difference between Invasive and non-invasive measurements?
Invasive- are methods that CAN cause physical harm to the birds
Non-invasive- are methods that CANNOT cause physical harm to the birds.
What are some examples of
invasive and non-invasive measurements?
Invasive: measure for disease resistance, measure for meat quality
Non-invasive: measuring for body weight, measuring for egg production.
What kinds of test do the Progeny and Sibling test show?
they are ways to measure an invasive trait WITHOUT doing physical harm to bird being tested.
Accuracy of indirect measurements is positively associated with relatedness.
Accuracy of indirect measurements is positively associated with relatedness.
What are the Genetic effects on quantitative traits?
The phenotyipc variations due to different alleles in genes controlling the expression of a trait.
What are the Environmantal effects on quantitative traits?
