The first law of Mendel. Definition: pure line, parental, hybrid, monohybrid, monohybrid cross, allele, dominant allele, "wild-type allele," "mutant allele", recessive allele, heterozygous, homozygous, homozygous dominant, homozygous recessive, zygote, genotype, phenotype , gene locus, haploinsufficiency, aplosufficienza. See meiosis: Ascomycetes and ascospores. Life cycle. Bases of dominance: aplosufficienza enzyme. One complication to Mendel's laws: inherits' linked to sex. sex determination in mammals and insects. affection male x female crossing wildtype; Crossing affected female x male wild-type, it was the F1 and F2. Analysis of family trees. Analysis examples of family trees to autosomal recessive traits. Autosomal recessive traits: phenylketonuria, albinism, cystic fibrosis. family trees to autosomal dominant characters. Achondroplastic dwarfism, Marfan's syndrome, Huntington's chorea, Esadattilia, Brachydactyly piebaldism. Molecular analysis for identification of mutations (Southern Blot, Northern Blot, Western Blot). Characters the X-linked recessive. Examples related to color blindness, Duchenne muscular dystrophy and hemophilia (factor VIII). Other examples: testicular feminization syndrome. X-linked dominant characters. Possible examples: X-linked vitamin D-resistant hypo-phosphatemia, Rett syndrome, Aicardi Syndrome. The inactivation of the X chromosome (Lyonizzazione of cromoxoma X). X inactivation examples: cats caliche, tortoiseshell cats, ectodermal dysplasia anhidrotic. Exercises on family trees and assignment of probabilities 'in cases of inheritance' simple Mendelian concerning a single gene. 2/4 Sistema centralizzato di iscrizione agli esami Programma simple Mendelian genetics exercises The second law of Mendel. Using the Punnett Square or the calculation of the probabilities' to predict the F2 progeny of crosses of-hybrids. Segregation phenotypic 9: 3: 3: 1. simple Mendelian genetics exercises with two independent loci. observed frequencies, expected frequencies and Chi-Square test. Synthesis of pure lines for autoincrocio in "n" generations. pure lines as opposed to "hybrid virescenti". The chromosomal bases assortment independent. Examples of application of the test of Chi-Square and independent segregation of two loci. Inherits' extranuclear. Heteroplasmy. Pathologies related to mitochondrial DNA. Characters penetrance and / or expressivity 'variable. Mendelian genetics exercises two independent characters. Mendelian genetics exercises one and two independent characters, and X-linked.
