Overview: Drawing from the Deck of Genes
• What genetic principles account for
the passing of traits from parents to
offspring?
• The “blending” hypothesis is the idea
that genetic material from the two
parents blends together (like blue and
yellow paint blend to make green)
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• The “particulate” hypothesis is the idea
that parents pass on discrete heritable
units (genes)
• This hypothesis can explain the
reappearance of traits after several
generations
• Mendel documented a particulate
mechanism through his experiments
with garden peas

Concept 14.1: Mendel used the scientific
approach to identify two laws of inheritance
• Mendel discovered the basic
principles of heredity by
breeding garden peas in
carefully planned experiments

Mendel’s Experimental, Quantitative
Approach
• Advantages of pea plants for genetic study
– There are many varieties with distinct heritable
features, or characters (such as flower color);
character variants (such as purple or white
flowers) are called traits
– Mating can be controlled
– Each flower has sperm-producing organs
(stamens) and an egg-producing organ (carpel)
– Cross-pollination (fertilization between different
plants) involves dusting one plant with pollen
from another

• Mendel chose to track only those
characters that occurred in two
distinct alternative forms
• He also used varieties that were
true-breeding
–produce offspring of the same
variety when they self-pollinate
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• In a typical experiment, Mendel mated two
contrasting, true-breeding varieties, a process
called hybridization
• The true-breeding parents are the P
generation
• The hybrid offspring of the P generation are
called the F1 generation
• When F1 individuals self-pollinate or crosspollinate with other F1 hybrids, the F2
generation is produced
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
The Law of Segregation
• When Mendel crossed contrasting, truebreeding white- and purple-flowered pea
plants, all of the F1 hybrids were purple
• When Mendel crossed the F1 hybrids, many
of the F2 plants had purple flowers, but some
had white
• Mendel discovered a ratio of about three to
one, purple to white flowers, in the F2
generation

• Mendel reasoned that only the purple
flower factor was affecting flower color
in the F1 hybrids
• Mendel called the purple flower color a
dominant trait and the white flower
color a recessive trait
• The factor for white flowers was not
diluted or destroyed because it
reappeared in the F2 generation
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• What Mendel called a
“heritable factor” is what we
now call a gene
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Table 14.1
Mendel’s Model
1 - Alternative versions of genes
account for variations in inherited
characters
• Alternative versions of a gene are
called alleles
• Each gene resides at a specific
locus on a specific chromosome
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Figure 14.4

2. Second: For each character, an
organism inherits two alleles, one
from each parent
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
3 - If the two alleles at a locus differ, then
one (the dominant allele) determines the
organism’s appearance, and the other (the
recessive allele) has no noticeable effect
on appearance
• In the flower-color example, the F1
plants had purple flowers because the
allele for that trait is dominant
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
4 - The Law of Segregation
• Two alleles for a heritable character
separate (segregate) during gamete
formation and end up in different
gametes
• An egg or a sperm gets only one of the
two alleles that are present in the
organism

Testcross
• A way to tell the genotype of an individual
with the dominant phenotype.
• Such an individual could be either
homozygous dominant or heterozygous
• The answer is to carry out a testcross:
breeding the mystery individual with a
homozygous recessive individual
• If any offspring display the recessive
phenotype, the mystery parent must be
heterozygous

The Law of Independent Assortment
• Mendel identified his second law of inheritance by
following two characters at the same time
• Crossing two true-breeding parents differing in two
characters produces dihybrids in the F1
generation, heterozygous for both characters
• A dihybrid cross, a cross between F1
dihybrids, can determine whether two characters
are transmitted to offspring as a package or
independently

• Law of Independent Assortment
– Each pair of alleles segregates
independently of each other pair of alleles
during gamete formation
– This law applies only to genes on different,
non-homologous chromosomes or those
far apart on the same chromosome
– Genes located near each other on the
same chromosome tend to be inherited
together
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Concept 14.2: The laws of probability
govern Mendelian inheritance
• Mendel’s laws of segregation and
independent assortment reflect the rules of
probability
• When tossing a coin, the outcome of one
toss has no impact on the outcome of the
next toss
• In the same way, the alleles of one gene
segregate into gametes independently of
another gene’s alleles
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
The Multiplication and Addition Rules
Applied to Monohybrid Crosses
• The multiplication rule states that the
probability that two or more independent
events will occur together is the product
of their individual probabilities
• The addition rule states that the
probability of an event that can occur
two or more different ways is the sum of
the separate probabilities of those ways.

Concept 14.3: Inheritance patterns are often
more complex than predicted by simple
Mendelian genetics
• The relationship between genotype and phenotype
is rarely as simple as in the pea plant characters
Mendel studied
• Most heritable characters are not determined by
only one gene with two alleles
• However, the basic principles of segregation and
independent assortment apply even to more
complex patterns of inheritance
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Extending Mendelian Genetics for a Single
Gene
• Inheritance of characters by a single gene
may deviate from simple Mendelian patterns
in the following situations:
– When alleles are not completely dominant or
recessive
– When a gene has more than two alleles
– When a gene produces multiple phenotypes
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Degrees of Dominance
• Complete Dominance
• Incomplete Dominance
• Codominance

The Relation Between Dominance and Phenotype
• A dominant allele does not subdue a
recessive allele; alleles don’t interact that way
• Alleles are simply variations in a gene’s
nucleotide sequence
• For any character, dominance/recessiveness
relationships of alleles depend on the level of
expression of the alleles
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
• Tay-Sachs disease is fatal
– A dysfunctional enzyme causes an
accumulation of lipids in the brain
– At the organismal level, the allele is recessive
(Only tt have the disease)
– At the biochemical level, the phenotype is
incompletely dominant (Tt expresses functional
and non-functional enzyme but No Symptoms)
– At the molecular level, the alleles are
codominant (Since Tt expresses functional and
non-functional enzyme indicates TTTN)
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Frequency of Dominant Alleles
• Dominant alleles are not necessarily more common
in populations than recessive alleles
• For example, one baby out of 400 in the United
States is born with extra fingers or toes (Polydactyly)
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Pleiotropy
• Most genes have multiple phenotypic
effects, a property called pleiotropy
Multiple Alleles
• Most genes exist in populations in more
than two allelic forms
• Ex. Blood groups in humans

Epistasis
– A gene at one locus alters the
phenotypic expression of a gene at a
second locus
– For example, in Labrador retrievers and many
other mammals, coat color depends on two genes
– One gene determines the pigment color (with
alleles B for black and b for brown)
– The other gene (with alleles C for color and c for
no color) determines whether the pigment will be
deposited in the hair

Polygenic Inheritance
• Quantitative characters are those
that vary in the population along a
continuum
• Quantitative variation usually indicates
polygenic inheritance, an
additive effect of two or more genes on
a single phenotype

Nature and Nurture: The Environmental
Impact on Phenotype
• Phenotype for a character may depend on
environment as well as genotype
• The norm of reaction is the phenotypic
range of a genotype influenced by the
environment
• For example, hydrangea flowers of the same
genotype range from blue-violet to pink,
depending on soil acidity
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Figure 14.14
Concept 14.4: Many human traits follow
Mendelian patterns of inheritance
• Humans are not good subjects for genetic research
– Generation time is too long
– Parents produce relatively few offspring
– Breeding experiments are unacceptable
• However, basic Mendelian genetics endures as the
foundation of human genetics
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Pedigree Analysis
• A pedigree is a family tree that describes
the interrelationships of parents and
children across generations
• Inheritance patterns of particular traits can
be traced and described using pedigrees
• Pedigrees can be used to make
predictions about future offspring

The Behavior of Recessive Alleles
• Recessively inherited disorders show
up only in individuals homozygous for
the allele
• Carriers are heterozygous individuals
who carry the recessive allele but are
phenotypically normal; most individuals
with recessive disorders are born to
carrier parents

Eggs
• If a recessive allele that causes a disease is
rare, then the chance of two carriers meeting
and mating is low
• Matings between close relatives increase the
chance of mating between two carriers of the
same rare allele
• Most societies and cultures have laws or
taboos against marriages between close
relatives
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Cystic Fibrosis
• Cystic fibrosis is the most common lethal genetic
disease in the United States striking one out of
every 2,500 people of European descent
• The cystic fibrosis allele (recessive) results in
defective or absent chloride transport channels in
plasma membranes leading to a buildup of
chloride ions outside the cell
• Symptoms include mucus buildup in some internal
organs and abnormal absorption of nutrients in the
small intestine
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Sickle-Cell Disease: A Genetic Disorder with
Evolutionary Implications
• Sickle-cell disease affects one out of 400 AfricanAmericans
• The disease is caused by the substitution of a
single amino acid in the hemoglobin protein in red
blood cells
• In homozygous individuals, all hemoglobin is
abnormal (sickle-cell)
• Symptoms include physical weakness, pain, organ
damage, and even paralysis
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Fig. 14-UN1
• Heterozygotes (said to have sickle-cell trait)
are usually healthy but may suffer some
symptoms
• About one out of ten African Americans has
sickle cell trait, an unusually high frequency
of an allele with detrimental effects in
homozygotes
• Heterozygotes are resistant to the malaria
parasite so there is an advantage to being
heterozygous
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Dominantly Inherited Disorders
• Some human disorders are caused by
dominant alleles
• Dominant alleles that cause a lethal
disease are rare and arise by mutation
• Achondroplasia is a form of dwarfism
caused by a rare dominant allele

Huntington’s Disease: A Late-Onset Lethal
Disease
• The timing of onset of a disease significantly
affects its inheritance
• Huntington’s disease is a degenerative
disease of the nervous system
• The disease has no obvious phenotypic
effects until the individual is about 35 to 40
years of age
• Once the deterioration of the nervous system
begins the condition is irreversible and fatal
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Multifactorial Disorders
• Many diseases, such as heart disease,
diabetes, alcoholism, mental illnesses,
and cancer have both genetic and
environmental components
© 2011 Pearson Education, Inc.
Counseling Based on Mendelian Genetics
and Probability Rules
• Using family histories, genetic counselors help
couples determine the odds that their children will
have genetic disorders
• Probabilities are predicted on the most accurate
information at the time; predicted probabilities may
change as new information is available
