NON-MENDELIAN GENETICS Definition Genetic interactions that do not follow complete dominance, are expressed together, or influence each other’s expression. Incomplete Dominance Definition The phenotype of the heterozygote is intermediate between two homozygotes. Experimental Parental Monohybrid Cross Design True-breeding red (R) flowered snapdragons were crossed with true-breeding white (r) flowered. Incomplete Dominance F1 Generation Genotype:Rr Phenotype: Pink Incomplete Dominance F2 Generation Genotypes: RR, Rr, rr Phenotypes: 1 Red, 2 Pink, 1 White Incomplete Dominance Interpretation 1) Red snapdragons have two alleles of a gene for red pigment. Expression of both alleles gives the deep red color 2) White snapdragons have two alleles that specify "no pigment". Expression of both alleles gives no color 3) Pink snapdragons are heterozygous with one red allele; its expression results in only enough pigment molecules to make flowers pink. Codominance Definition Two nonidentical alleles of a pair express two different phenotype in the heterozygote. Example 1) Blood groups are controlled by three alleles (multiple allele system). a) IA, IB, i 2) Possible Outcomes a) ii = O blood group b) IAIA or IAi = A blood group c) IBIB or IBi = B blood group d) IAIB = AB blood group (Codominance) Codominance Epistasis Definition Interaction of two or more gene pairs at different loci influence the same trait, but one allele has an overriding effect on the phenotype. Example 1) Hair color in Labrador dogs is determined by two sets of gene pairs. 2) Possible Alleles Quantity of Pigment (Melanin) Produced Black – B Brown – b Pigment (Melanin) Deposition Turned On – E Turned Off – e Epistasis Black Brown BBEE BbEE BBEe BbEe bbEE bbEe Yellow BBee Bbee bbee Pleiotropy Definition A single gene affects more than one phenotype Example 1) White Mohan Tiger a) Same allele for absence of melanin production gives rise to crossed eyes. 2) Phenylketonuria (PKU) a) Same allele for toxic substances gives rise to light colored hair. Penetrance (Expressivity) Definition Differing expressions of a gene. Example 1) Polydactyly Penetrance (Expressivity) Environmental Effects Definition The environment can affect the expression of a gene. Example 1) Himalayan rabbits a) Homozygous for ch allele coding for tyrosinase expressing melanin production b) Tyrosinase is not active above 33° C c) Hair appears light due to lack of melanin Continuous Variation (Polygenic Inheritance) Definition Continuous range of small differences in a given trait among all the individuals of a population due to inheritance of multiple alleles that affect the same trait. Examples 1) Height 2) Eye color (4 Genes and 8 Alleles) POLYGENIC INHERITANCE EYE COLOR Continuous Variation (Polygenic Inheritance) Eye Color Light Blue Medium Blue Dark Blue Gray Green Hazel Light Brown Medium Brown Dark Brown Alleles aabbccdd aabbccDd aabbCcDd aaBbCcDd AaBbCcDd AaBbCcDD AaBbCCDD AaBBCCDD AABBCCDD Alleles 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
