MENDEL WAS RIGHT…. BUT NOT FOR EVERY
SITUATION…
Extensions to Mendel
Going beyond Mendel
So far you have learned about Mendel’s Dominance-Recessive Mode of Inheritance… but this is not the only method of inheritance.

Codominance
Both alleles are dominant and are fully expressed.
Examples: Coat color in cattle Human blood types Cat fur

Both alleles contribute to the phenotype….
Incomplete Dominance
Neither allele is dominant. If both alleles are present than the phenotype will be an intermediate.
Example: snapdragons flower colors (red, white, pink) Hair texture (wavy, straight, curly)
Incomplete Dominance
Example: Snapdragons

X-linked Traits (a.k.a. sex linked)
Traits that are located on the X-chromosome
Examples:color-blindness color blind testHemophilia (blood-clotting disorder)Calico and tortoise-shell catsDuchenne’s muscular dystrophy
A man with hemophilia marries a woman who is homozygous normal.
In hemophilia: H - Dominant (no hemophilia)
h - recessive (hemophilia)

Punnett Squares with X-linked traits
Lets look at color blindness – another X-linked trait.
In color blindness: B is dominant (not color blind) b is recessive (color blind)
Punnett Squares with X-linked traits
A boy inherits his color-blindness from his mother NOT his father. Create a punnett
square to show this. . .a. Determine the genotypes of the parents and the
gametes they will contribute to their offspring.

Multiple Alleles
There are more than 2 alleles, present in a certain population, for a given trait. This person will only have two alleles even though
there are more than two possibilities!Examples:
Rabbit fur color Human blood types
Punnett Squares with Multiple Alleles
Rabbit Coat Colors The brown allele (C) is dominant. The light brown allele (cch) is dominant to ch and c. The Himalayan allele (white with dark extremities)
(ch) is dominant to c. The albino allele (c) is recessive.
C > cch > ch > c
Punnett Squares with multiple alleles
What would be the result of a cross between an albino rabbit and a light brown rabbit with a albino parent?

Polygenic Traits
A trait that is controlled by two or more genes. Will manifest as a range of phenotypes.
Polygenic Traits
Examples include Eyecolor Height Skin color
Punnett Squares with polygenic traits
Even though eyecolor is controlled by at least three genes, we really understand how brown/blue/green colors work as controlled by two genes…
Eyecolor:
Gene 1: the green/blue eye color gene is located on chromosome 19.
Green is dominant (G) , blue is recessive (g)
Gene 2: the central brown eye color gene is located on chromosome 15.
Brown is dominant (B) , blue is recessive (b)
Punnett Squares with polygenic traits
Eyecolor: Gene 1: green is dominant (G), , blue is recessive (g)
Gene 2: brown is dominant (B), blue is recessive (b) Brown eyecolor: BBGG, BBGg,
BbGg, Bbgg Green eyecolor: bbGG, bbGg Blue eyecolor: bbgg
Brown > Green > Blue
Punnett Squares with polygenic traits
What would be the result of a cross between a blue-eyed person (recessive for both genes) and a brown-eyed person (heterozygous for both genes)
a. Determine the genotypes of the parents and the gametes they will contribute to their offspring.

Polygenic trait – Skin colorHypothetically found on 3 genes: Human Genome project proposes its actually found on many more.
“Notable Notes”
Pleiotropy
Exact opposite of polygenic inheritance: A single gene affects many phenotypic characteristics
Example: Sickle-cell allele When present on
both homologous chromosomes can cause sickle-cell anemia
Heterozygotes areresistant to malaria(why allele has survived)
Pleiotropy
1 GENE
Can affect MANY phenotypes
Linked genes
• The number of genes in a cell is far greater than the number of chromosomes; in fact, each chromosome has hundreds or thousands of genes.
• Genes located close together on the same chromosome tend to be inherited together and are called linked genes.
• Linked genes generally do not follow Mendel’s law of independent assortment.
Gene mapping
Thomas Hunt MorganDrosophila fly (fruit fly) Used % outcome of
crossing over (recombination frequency) to map out where genes loci (location) are on chromosomes
Genetics and Your Environment
Many characteristics (phenotypes) result from a combination of heredity and environment.
For humans, nutrition influences height; exercise alters build; sun-tanning darkens the skin, and experience improves performance on intelligence tests.
Risk of heart disease and cancer and susceptibility to alcoholism and schizophrenia–are influenced by both genes and environment.
