Genetics can be defined as
•
The biological discipline involving the study
of heredity
 the study of genes.
 the inheritance of physical traits.
 the study and inheritance of DNA.
 the study and inheritance of chromosomes
 all of the above.
Focus on the MOLECULAR-->DNA
(deoxyribonucleic acid)

Structure of DNA
•
•
DNA molecule organized into chain of
nucleotides composed of three parts:
 Nitrogenous Base
 5-Carbon Sugar (Deoxyribose)
 Phosphate Group
Nucleotides bonded to each other forming a
helix.
 Hydrogen bonds hold each base on one
side of the helix to another base on the
other side.

Three Parts of DNA

•
Structure of DNA-->nucleotides
Four types of DNA nucleotides:
 Purines--Adenine (A) and Guanine (G)
 Pyrimidines--Cytosine (C) and Thymine (T)
Nitrogenous Base Part

Helix structure:
Two chains
binding together
using hydrogen
bonds
(base pairs)

DNA Functions (ACGT)
•
Storage of Genetic Information
 Gene - Segment of DNA that directs
protein synthesis.
- Protein may act as an enzyme
influencing cell activities.
 Genome - Sum total of DNA in an
organism’s chromosomes.
- Codon - Groups of three nucleotides.
(in a row, ex. AAT; AAA; GCT; etc…)

DNA Functions
•
Replication of Information
 Occurs during S phase of cell cycle.
- Strands of double helix unzip allowing
DNA polymerase (enzyme) to pair
individual nucleotides with the template
strands.
 Semi-Conservative Replication
 Occurs simultaneously in both
directions, and begins at several
points simultaneously.

DNA Functions
•
Expression of Information
 Different subset of the genetic information
is read in each cell type.
 Expression requires two processes.
- Transcription - Copy of gene message
using RNA (intermediate nucleic acid).
- Translation
 Messenger RNA (mRNA) translated to
produce proteins.

Transcription
Three different types of RNA produced:
 Messenger RNA (mRNA)-->proteins
 Transfer RNA (tRNA)-->translation
 Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)
RNA Synthesis (ACGU nucleotide parts)
 Nucleotides added to single stranded DNA
molecule by RNA polymerase.
- Only portions of the genome replicated.
 Remainder is noncoding DNA
(includes directions for expression!).

Translation
•
•
mRNA transcripts are decoded into proteins.
 Genetic code based on codons.
- 64 possible combinations of ACGT/U)
(43)
 Code for 20 amino acids.
tRNA acts as a translator.
 Anticodon binds to mRNA codon.
 Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) binds to mRNA
and facilitates translation

Mutation
•
•
Mutations - Changes in DNA sequence.
 Mutagens - Agents that alter DNA.
- Ultraviolet light
- Ionizing radiation (Pasta wheat/Ruby red)
 Somatic Mutation - Occurs in body cell.
 Germ-Line Mutation - Occurs in tissues that
will produce sex cells.
- Passed on to future generations.
All genetic variability due to mutations.

Cytogenetics
Cytogenetics is the study of chromosome
behavior and structure, from a genetic point
of view.
Changes in Chromosome Structure
 Inversion - Chromosomal piece is broken
and reinserted in the opposite orientation.
- ABCDE
ABDCE
 Translocation - Chromosomal piece breaks
off and attaches to another chromosome.
- Important in speciation (rye)
Stern - Introductory Plant Biology: 9th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies
Cytogenetics
•
Changes in Chromosome Number
 Mistakes during chromosome pairing and
separation can result in gametes carrying
extra or missing chromosomes.
- Aneuploid - Carries, or is missing, an
extra chromosome(s).
- Polyploid - Has at least one complete
extra set of chromosomes.
- Many cultivated plants are polyploid
because they are bigger and produce
more.

Genetics from Mendel to Today
•
•
•
Gregor Mendel (Austrian Monk)
inheritance of traits (18501865); rediscovered in 1900s
Used peas
Watson & Crick model of DNA
(1954)

Mendelian Genetics
•
Mendel crossed self-pollinated pea plants
and recorded his observations.
 Crossed a tall plant with a short plant.
 Parental Generation (P)
- All offspring were tall.
- First Filial Generation (F1)
 Cross offspring yielded a ratio of three
tall individuals to one short individual.
 Second Filial Generation (F2)

Mendelian Genetics
•
•
Law of Unit Characters
 Factors (Alleles), which always occur in
pairs, control the inheritance of various
characteristics.
- Genes are always at the same position
(locus) on homologous chromosomes.
Law of Dominance
 For any given pair of alleles, one
(Dominant) may mask the expression of
the other (recessive).
Stern - Introductory Plant Biology: 9th Ed. - All Rights Reserved - McGraw Hill Companies
Mendelian Genetics
•
•
Phenotype refers to an organism’s physical
appearance.
Genotype refers to the genetic information
responsible for contributing to the phenotype.
 Homozygous - Both alleles identical.
 Heterozygous - Alleles are contrasting.

Monohybrid Cross (one trait)
A cross is made between two true-breeding
parents differing for a single trait, producing
an F1 generation. RR X rr
 These plants are intercrossed to produce
an F2 generation.

Mendelian Inheritance Pattern
•The phenotype of the F1
resembled one parental
form.
•All F1s looked the same.
•The “hidden” parental
form reappeared in the F2
generation.

Dihybrid Cross
•
Cross made for parents differing in two traits.
 Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment
- Factors (genes) controlling two or more
traits segregate independently of each
other.
 Linked genes do not segregate
independently.
- Punnett Square used to determine
genotypes of the zygotes.

traits

Mendelian Genetics
•
•
Backcross
 A cross between a hybrid and one of its
parents.
- Can be used to test inheritance theory.
Incomplete Dominance
 Some genes exhibit traits in which a
heterozygote is intermediate in phenotype
to the two homozygotes.

Quantitative Traits
•
Quantitative traits exhibit a range of
phenotypes rather than discrete phenotypes
studied by Mendel.
 Molecular geneticists are able to identify
chromosomal fragments, quantitative trait
loci, associated with quantitative traits.

F2 are not 3:1 tall to short but all heights
between 1.5 m and 8 m

Linkage
•
•
•
•
•
Occurs with 2 traits - often located close
together on chromosome
Often segregate like a single trait
No recombination occurs
Get a shortage of unique gamete
genotypes in F1 generation
Get fewer genotypes in F2 generation

Linkage and Mapping
•
Genes that are together on a chromosome
are said to be linked.
 Each gene has a specific location (locus)
on a chromosome.
- Crossing-over should be more likely
between two genes located far apart on
a chromosome that between two genes
located closer together.
 Crossing over frequency can be used
to construct a genetic map.
 1 map unit = 1% crossing over.

Extranuclear DNA
•
Entranuclear DNA is found in both
mitochondria and chloroplasts.
 Endosymbiont Hypothesis theorized
mitochondria and chloroplasts were freeliving, and at some point became
incorporated into cells of organisms that
evolved into plants and established a
symbiotic relationship.

Transcription
•
•
•
Promoter Region signals transcription
enzymes to attach to the DNA.
 Single-stranded RNA transcript produced.
Chromosomes contain genes for building
tRNA.
 Each form of tRNA has a specific
anticodon loop.
- Base pairs with codon.
Genes for rRNA also transcribed in the
nucleus - Used to construct ribosomes.

Hardy-Weinberg Law
•
Hardy-Weinberg states the proportions of
dominant alleles to recessive alleles in a
normally interbreeding population will remain
the same from generation to generation in
the absence of external forces.
