S What is the principle of dominance?

Genes and Dominance
S The principle of dominance states that some alleles are dominant and
others are recessive.

Segregation
S The reappearance of the trait controlled by the recessive
allele indicated that at some point the allele for shortness
had been separated, or segregated, from the allele for
tallness.

Segregation
Alleles separate during gamete formation.

S A capital letter represents
the dominant allele for tall.
S A lowercase letter
represents the recessive
allele for short.
S In this example,
S T = tall
S t = short

for the F2 offspring appear in
the four boxes.

S Organisms that have two identical alleles for a particular
trait are said to be homozygous.
S Organisms that have two different alleles for the same trait
are heterozygous.
S Homozygous organisms are true-breeding for a particular
trait.
S Heterozygous organisms are hybrid for a particular trait.

S All of the tall plants have the same phenotype,
or physical characteristics. (What it LOOKS
like)
S The tall plants do not have the same genotype,
or genetic makeup.(The alleles that make up
the characteristics)

S The plants have
different genotypes
(TT and Tt), but they
have the same
phenotype (tall).

Homozygous
Tt

S Probability and Segregation
S One fourth (1/4) of the F2
plants have two alleles for
tallness (TT).
S 2/4 or 1/2 have one allele
for tall (T), and one for
short (t).
S One fourth (1/4) of the F2
have two alleles for short
(tt).
