Mendel's Experiments and Heredity > Mendel’s Experiments and the Laws of Probability
Introduction
• Mendel studied seven characteristics of the garden pea plants: flower color, seed
texture, seed color, stem length, pod color, pod texture, and flower position to
develop his Laws of Inheritance.
• Genetics is the study of genes passed from parents to offspring.
• Genes are the basic fundamental units of heredity.

Mendel's Experiments and Heredity > Mendel’s Experiments and the Laws of Probability
Mendel’s Model System
• Mendel used true-breeding plants in his experiments.These plants, when selffertilized, always produce offspring with the same phenotype.
• Pea plants are easily manipulated, grow in one season, and can be grown in large
quantities; these qualities allowed Mendel to conduct methodical, quantitative
analyses using large sample sizes.
• Based on his experiments with the garden peas, Mendel found that one
phenotype was always dominant over another recessive phenotype for the same
trait.

Mendelian Crosses
• Mendel carefully controlled his experiments by removing the anthers from the pea
plants before they matured.
• First generation pea plants were called parental generation, P0, while the following
generations were called filial, Fn, where n is the number of generations from P0.
• The ratio of characteristics in the P0−F1−F2 generations became the basis for
Mendel's postulates.

Garden Pea Characteristics Revealed the Basics of Heredity
• Dominant traits are inherited unchanged from one generation to the next.
• Recessive traits disappear in the first filial generation, but reappear in the second
filial generation at a ratio of 3:1, dominant:recessive.
• In the F1 generation, Mendel found that one of the two options for each trait had
disappeared (all offspring were identical phenotypes), while in the F2 generation,
the trait reappeared in 1/4 of the offspring (a 3:1 ratio).

Probability Basics
• The Product Rule is used to determine the outcome of an event with two
independent events; the probability of the event is the product of the probabilities
of each individual event.
• The Sum Rule is used to determine the outcome of an event with two mutually
exclusive events from multiple pathways; the probability of the event is the sum of
the probabilities of each individual event.
• The Product Rule of probability is used to determine the probability of having both
dominant traits in the F2 progeny; it is the product of the probabilities of having the
dominant trait for each characteristic.
• The Sum Rule of probability is used to determine the probability of having one

Mendel's Experiments and Heredity
Key terms
• dominant a relationship between alleles of a gene, in which one allele masks the expression (phenotype) of another allele at the
same locus
• filial of a generation or generations descending from a specific previous one
• genetics the branch of biology that deals with the transmission and variation of inherited characteristics, in particular
chromosomes and DNA
• genotype the specific genetic information of a cell or organism, usually a description of the allele or alleles relating to a specific
gene.
• hybrid offspring resulting from cross-breeding different entities, e.g. two different species or two purebred parent strains
• parental of the generation of organisms that produce a hybrid
• phenotype the observable characteristics of an organism, often resulting from its genetic information or a combination of
genetic information and environmental factors
• probability a number, between 0 and 1, expressing the precise likelihood of an event happening
• product rule the probability of two independent events occurring together can be calculated by multiplying the individual
probabilities of each event occurring alone
• recessive able to be covered up by a dominant trait
• sum rule the probability of the occurrence of one event or the other event, of two mutually exclusive events, is the sum of their
individual probabilities
• true-breeding plant a plant that always produces offspring of the same phenotype when self-fertilized.

Mendelian Crosses
In one of his experiments on inheritance patterns, Mendel crossed plants that were true-breeding for violet flower color with plants true-breeding for white
flower color (the P generation).The resulting hybrids in the F1 generation all had violet flowers.In the F2 generation, approximately three-quarters of the
plants had violet flowers, while one-quarter had white flowers.

Mendel's Experiments and Heredity
Role of probability in segregation of alleles and fertilization
In a genetic cross, the probability of the dominant trait being expressed is dependent upon its frequency.In this case, both parents possessed a dominant
and a recessive gene for the trait of flower color.The dominant trait is expressed in 3/4 of the offspring and the recessive trait is expressed in 1/4.
