Ch. 14 - Mendelian Genetics and the
Inheritance of Genetic Traits
• Modern genetics began with Gregor
Mendel’s quantitative experiments with pea
plants
Stamen
Carpel
Figure 9.2A, B
Gregor Mendel (Father of Genetics)
• Discovered the fundamentals of Genetics
in the 1860’s
• Lived in Austria and studied in Vienna
• Worked with Garden Peas (Pisum sativum)
• Gathered a huge amount of numerical data
• Discovered the frequency of how traits are
inherited
• Established basic principles of Genetics
MENDEL’S PRINCIPLES
• The science of heredity dates back to
ancient attempts at selective breeding
• Until the 20th century, however, many
biologists erroneously believed that
– characteristics acquired during lifetime could be
passed on
– characteristics of both parents blended
irreversibly in their offspring
Reason Mendel worked with
Garden Peas
•
•
•
•
Easy to grow
Many variations were available
Easy to control pollination (self vs cross)
Flower is protected from other pollen
sources
(reproductive structures are completely
enclosed by petals)
• Plastic bags can be used for extra
protection
• Mendel crossed
pea plants that
differed in certain
characteristics
and traced the
traits from
generation to
generation
• This illustration
shows his
technique for
cross-fertilization

Seed Color:
Yellow & green
Height:

1) Monohybrid cross: Two hybrid plants are tall.
How many of the offspring would you predict will
be short if there were 400 produced?
2) Dihybrid cross: Two hybrid plants with yellow
seeds and axial flowers are crossed. How many
of the offspring would you predict will have axial
flowers with green seeds if 3750 are produced?
3) Trihybrid cross: Both parents are heterozygous
for all three traits. How many will be tall with
terminal flowers and yellow seeds if 250 are
produced?

Punnett square: predicts the
results of a genetic cross between
individuals of known genotype
Homozygous: pair of identical
alleles for a character
Heterozygous: two different
alleles for a gene
Phenotype: an organism’s traits
Genotype: an organism’s genetic
makeup
Testcross: breeding of a
recessive homozygote X dominate
phenotype (but unknown
genotype)

Mendel’s principle of segregation describes
the inheritance of a single characteristic
• From his
experimental data,
Mendel deduced
that an organism
has two genes
(alleles) for each
inherited
characteristic
– One characteristic
comes from each
parent

carries only one
allele of each pair
– The pairs of alleles
separate when
gametes form
– This process
describes Mendel’s
law of segregation

The principle of independent assortment
is revealed by tracking two
characteristics at once
• By looking at two characteristics at once,
Mendel found that the alleles of a pair
segregate independently of other allele pairs
during gamete formation
– This is known as the principle of independent
assortment
Remember……..
• Every Trait within a diploid organism will
have two alleles
• These alleles are separated during Meiosis
Traits: Seed color, seed shape, height
Alleles:
Y or y
R or r
T or t
Parents are diploid
Gametes are produced: only one allele is
present for each trait in each gamete

Do a chi-squared test
Chi-Square value: ???? (Homework)
Expected Value for each phenotype: 187,187, 62, 62
Chi-squared value:
Critical value from table (in lab)
7.82
(0.05 or 95%)
Sample Problem using Chi square
• Two hybrid Tall plants are crossed. If the F2
generation produced 787 tall plants and 277
short plants. Does this confirm Mendel’s
explanation?
• What is the expected value?
This is your null hypothesis (HO)
• Total number of plants: 1064
• 3:1 Phenotypic ratio
• Expected value should be: 798 tall and 266 short
(75%)
(25%)
Statistical Tools to Analyze results
• Chi-Square: Will tell you how much your data is
different from expected (calculated) results. It is
Non-Parametric and deals with different
catagorical groups vs. Parametric which deals
with numbers and which case you would use a
T-test instead.
Formula:  2 =  (o – e)2
e
2: what we are solving:
o: observed value
e: expected (calculated value)
When to use Chi-Squared Test
•
•
•
•
Can only be used with raw counts (not measurements)
Comparing Experimental & expected (theo.) values
Sample size must be more than 25 to be reliable
Aims to test the null hypothesis (H0)
– (H0): the hypothesis that there’s no difference between the
data sets
– Alternative hypothesis: there is a significant difference
• Compare with a critical value table (p values)
• To reject the (H0): value must be GREATER than the critical
value & favor the alternative hypothesis.
• Accepting the null means that there’s no significant difference
between the data sets.
Calculation of Chi Square Value
2 =  (O – E)2
E
2 = (787 – 798)2
(277 – 266)2 = 0.61
798
266
There are two categories and therefore the degrees of
freedom would be 2-1 = 1 .
+
• Look up the critical value for 1 degree of freedom:
3.84 (next slide-always given)
• If your value is LARGER than the critical value then you
reject the null hypothesis and assume that there is a
significant difference between the observed value and the
expected. Values are statistically different.
• 0.61 is less than 3.84 therefore we accept the null
hypothesis and accept that our values are similar enough
There’s no significant difference between the observed &
expected values. Values are not random.
Answers to IQ #5 & #6

IQ #6----2.
2 =  (O – E)2

187
62
Critical Value: 4 groups = 3 degrees of freedom= 7.81
9.58 is greater than 7.81 therefore we reject the null hypothesis
What does this mean?
Accepting or Rejecting your
hypothesis?
• Accepting the Null (H0) means that:
– Test value is less than the critical value
– Values are similar enough
– there is a not SIGNIFICANT difference between the observed
and expected value (p<0.05). More than 95% confidence
– Chance alone cannot explain the differences observed.
• Rejecting the Null (H0) means that:
–
–
–
–
Test value is greater than the critical value
Values are very different from each other
Random Chance can cause the results
the observations are significantly different from the
expectations. (p>0.05). Evaluate the results. Less than 95%
confidence in the values

How is Codominance
different from Incomplete
Dominance?
Non-single Gene Genetics
(pg. 260-262)
Incomplete dominance:
-neither pair of alleles are completely
expressed when both are present.
-Typically, a third phenotype is produced
Ex: snapdragons (pink flowers)
hypercholesterolemia
Codominance: Two alleles are expressed in a
heterozygote condition.
Ex: Human Blood types
Incomplete Dominance
Incomplete dominance results in
intermediate phenotypes
• When an offspring’s
phenotype—such
as flower color— is
in between the
phenotypes of its
parents, it exhibits
incomplete
dominance

Pleiotropy: genes with multiple phenotypic effect.
Ex: sickle-cell anemia
combs in roosters
coat color in rabbits
Polygenic Inheritance: an additive effect of two or
more genes on a single phenotypic character
Ex: human skin pigmentation and height
A single gene may affect many
phenotypic characteristics
• A single gene may affect phenotype in many
ways
– This is called pleiotropy
– The allele for sickle-cell disease is an example

Project (2003)
• Entire DNA (nucleus) composed of about
2.9 billion base pairs of nucleotides
• Six to Ten anonymous individuals were
used
• Estimated number of genes = under 30,000
• Only 1% to 2% of human DNA codes for a
protein or RNA
• On Chromosome 22: 545 genes have been
identified.
Genetic traits in humans can be tracked
through family pedigrees
• The inheritance of many
human traits follows
Mendel’s principles and
the rules of probability

SEX CHROMOSOMES AND
SEX-LINKED GENES
• A human male has one X chromosome and
one Y chromosome
• A human female has two X chromosomes
• Whether a sperm cell has an X or Y
chromosome determines the sex of the
offspring
Human sex-linkage
•
•
•
•
•
SRY gene: gene on Y chromosome that triggers the development of
testes
Fathers= pass X-linked alleles to all daughters only (but not to sons)
Mothers= pass X-linked alleles to both sons & daughters
Sex-Linked Disorders: Color-blindness; Duchenne muscular
dystropy (MD); hemophilia
Sex-linked disorders affect mostly
males
• Most sex-linked human
disorders are due to
recessive alleles
– Examples: hemophilia,
red-green color blindness
– These are mostly seen in males
Figure 9.23A
– A male receives a single X-linked allele from his
mother, and will have the disorder, while a
female has to receive the allele from both
parents to be affected

Sex-linked genes exhibit a unique
pattern of inheritance
• All genes on the sex chromosomes are said
to be sex-linked
– In many organisms, the X chromosome carries
many genes unrelated to sex
– Fruit fly eye
color is a
sex-linked
characteristic
Figure 9.22A
Chromosomal Linkage
• Thomas Morgan
• Drosophilia melanogaster
• XX (female) vs. XY (male)
• Sex-linkage: genes located
on a sex chromosome
• Linked genes: genes located
on the same chromosome
that tend to be inherited
together
– Their inheritance pattern reflects the fact that
males have one X chromosome and females
have two
– These figures illustrate inheritance patterns for
white eye color (r) in the fruit fly, an X-linked
recessive trait

Genes on the same chromosome tend to
be inherited together
• Certain genes are linked
– They tend to be inherited together because they
reside close together on the same chromosome
How to Determine if Two Genes are
linked.
Perform a Two Point Test Cross:
Parents: AaBb X aabb
Possible gametes: AB, Ab, aB, ab X ab
Following Mendelian principles of independent
assortment (not linked on the same chromosome)
then:
ab
AB
Ab

Crossing Over Developing
Genetic Maps
Pgs. 278-281
Crossing over produces new
combinations of alleles
• This produces gametes with recombinant
chromosomes
• The fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster was
used in the first experiments to demonstrate
the effects of crossing over
Genetic Recombination (pg. 281)
•
•
•
Crossing over
Genes that DO NOT assort
independently of each other
Genetic maps
The further apart 2 genes
are, the higher the probability that
a crossover will occur between
them and therefore the higher the
recombination frequency
Linkage maps
Genetic map based on
recombination frequencies
Geneticists use crossover data to map
genes
• Crossing over is more likely to occur
between genes that are farther apart
– Recombination frequencies can be used to map
the relative positions of genes on chromosomes

Abnormal numbers of sex chromosomes do
not usually affect survival
• Nondisjunction can produce gametes with
extra or missing sex chromosomes
– Unusual numbers of sex chromosomes upset
the genetic balance less than an unusual
number of autosomes

• To study human chromosomes
microscopically, researchers stain and
display them as a karyotype
– A karyotype usually shows 22 pairs of
autosomes and one pair of sex chromosomes

Changes that can occur in
Chromosome Structure
(Abnormalities)
Alterations of chromosome structure can cause
birth defects and cancer
• Chromosome breakage can lead to
rearrangements that can produce genetic
disorders or cancer
– Four types of rearrangement are:
deletion, duplication, inversion, and translocation
• Chromosomal changes in a somatic cell can
cause cancer
– A chromosomal translocation in the bone
marrow is associated with chronic myelogenous
leukemia

Alterations of chromosomal structure:
Pg. 327
Deletion: removal of a chromosomal segment
Duplication: repeats a chromosomal segment
Inversion: segment reversal in a chromosome
Translocation: movement of a chromosomal segment to
another
Example of a Chromosomal
Deletion
• Cri Du Chat: “Cat cry” syndrome
– Effects chromosome #5
– Altered facial Features “moon face”
– Severe mental retardation
Barr Bodies
• Inactive X Chromosome
Pg. 284
• Predominant in females
• Dark Region of chromatin is visible at the edge of
the nucleus within a cell during interphase.
(Please see Figure 15.11)
• A small fraction of the genes located on this X
chromosome usually are expressed.
• Inactivation is a random event among the somatic
cells.
• Heterozygous individuals: ½ cells alleles expressed
• Ex. Calico cat & Tortoise shell (Variegation)
Calico Kitten w/Barr Bodies
Example of Variegation
Barr Bodies
Outbreeding vs. Inbreeding
• Inbreeding
-Increases homozygosity in the population.
-Increases frequency of genetic disorders
-Amplifies the homozygous phenotypes
• Outbreeding:
-Leads to better adapted offspring
-Heterozygous advantage & Hybrid Vigor become
evident and buffers out undesirable traits
Genomic Imprinting
• Def: a parental effect
on gene expression
• Identical alleles may
have different effects
on offspring, depending
on whether they arrive
in the zygote via the
ovum or via the sperm
Fragile X Syndrome
Fragile X Syndrome
• More common in Males
• Common form of
Mental Retardation
• Thinned region on tips
of chromatids
• Triplicate “CGG” repeats over
200 to 1000 times
• Normal: repeat 50 X or less
• Commonly seen in Cancer cells
• Varies in severity:
