Complementation
Process by which an allele of each of two
mutant genes makes up for the defect in
the other gene.
You Find Three Mutants With a
Similar Phenotype
Are they the Same Genotype?

To Do
 Plan experiment!
Thursday
 define symbols, diagram
crosses, determine
expectations, etc.
To Do
Tuesday?
 Each student:
complementation.
 Per bench, or per pair
(will tell tomorrow),
 recessive, dominance,
 controls (stock
maintenance).
