Genetics
|
analysis of inheritance patterns to identify and characterize genes
|
|
Genes
|
biological factors that induce specific traits
|
|
Alleles
|
Alternate forms of a given gene inherited from different parents
|
|
Locus
|
location of chomosome often used to refer to gene at that site
|
|
Independent Assortment
|
inheritance of alleles at one locus do not influence inheritance at other loci
|
|
Autosomal
|
any gene not located on C, not associated with X

|
9:3:3:1
|
|
9/16
|
Dominant for both loci
|
|
3/16
|
Dominant for 1st loci recessive for 2nd
|
|
1/16
|
recessive for both loci
|
|
Cross a hetero/homo Dominant with _________ to figure out genotype
|
homozygous recessive
|
|
Complementation asks
|
2 mutants w same phenotype made by mutations on same gene or seperate genes
|
|
Mutations in dif genes are complmentary bc
|
F1 are wild type heterozygous
|
|
non-Mendelian inheritance
|
semidominance, codominance, polygenic inheritance, epistasis, X-linkage, sex-influences inhertiance, linkage
|
|
Semidominance
|
partial or incomplete dominance, different alleles for a particular gene have equal effects...heterozygotes= intermed phenotype
|
|
Heterozygouse snapdragon flowers
|
pink
|
|
Phenotype and genotype ratios in semiodominant
|
the same 1:2:1
|
|
Codominance
|
different alleles for a gene that impart independent effects on phenotype (blood types) but A/B codom neither is dom to each other
|
|
Polygenic Inheritance
|
multiple genes influencing same trait
|
|
Epistasis
|
gene to mask phenotype of another gene at another locus, gene supressing the phenotype of a totally diff gene
|
|
Gene masking phenotype
|
Supressor
|
|
Supressed gene
|
hypostatic
|
|
More males than females affects think
|
colorblind!
|
|
Xinactivation
|
inactive one X chromosome in each blastomere, inactivated X become condensed known as Barr bodies
|
|
Barr body creation called
|
dosage compensation
|
|
X chromosome inactivation happens in
|
64 cell stage early in embryogenesis
|
|
Women are
|
genetic mosaics
|
|
LInkage
|
2 genes so close they segragate together during inheritance
|
|
Linkage goes against
|
independent assortment
|
|
If alleles for 2 genes on same homolog are both dominant or both recessive they are in
|
cis conformation
|
|
If dom and recessive on one homology and recessive dom on another homolog they are in
|
trans conformation
|
|
If loci are farther apart then
|
greater chance for crossing over
|
|
Recombinant frequency is proportional to
|
distance between loci
|
|
Genes are linked if
|
the numbers are different for genotypes
|
|
Recombinant type progeny
|
infrequenct crossovers between linked genes
|
|
Non-recombinant progeny is referred to as
|
parental type progeny resemble same conformation
|
|
Map units
|
percent recombination between 2 loci
|
|
Max number of map units between genes
|
50
|
|
If distance is greater than 50
|
equal chance for having an equal or odd number of crossovers between loci...so can same change to produce parental genotype or recombinants
|
|
Genes 50 MU apart or greater are not
|
linked
|
|
Monozygotic twins
|
develop from same zygot 100%
|
|
Dizygotic
|
2 diff zygotes..50%
|
|
Multifactorial traits
|
multiple factors both genetic and environmental (body weight)
|
|
Polygenic inheritance
|
for a trait to be controlled by multiple genes
|
|
polymorphism
|
multiple alleles in a populartion for a gene
|
|
heritability
|
estimate how much genetics contributes to a given trait
|
|
quantitiative multifactorial traits
|
can be assigned a numerical value
|
|
qualititative multifactorial traits
|
cannot be assigned a numerical value either occur or not at all, all or NONE
|
|
Cases at extreme tails of bel curve happen to be influences by
|
high proportion of factors (inherited genes and environmental conditions) pushing them to extreme
|
|
qualititative examples
|
heart attack, stroke, cancer, schizo, manic-depression, cleft palate, neural tube defcts, pyloric stenosis
|
|
qualitiative traits are plotted as
|
chance of manifesting the trait
|
|
threshold point
|
where chances for developing cancer are so high it will occur during the persons life
|
|
Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium
|
genes and alleles are distributed through a population, model assumes that the distribution, frequency of each allele, is a steady state
|
|
p
|
frequency of most abundant allele in populatoin
