  1. Chapter 15: Non-Mendelian Genetics (sex and gene linkage)

  2. Timeline of Events • Mitosis 1875 • Meiosis 1890s • Chromosomes being the “inheritance factors” that Mendel referred to 1902

  3. Linked genes • Genes that often travel together during meiosis and because they are on the same chromosome • Why some traits are often seen together… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_UcDhzjOio

  4. Genetic Maps & Map Units • By knowing recombination frequencies you can determine the approx. distance between genes on the same chromosome in map units • If you know the map units of traits on a chromosome you can create a genetic map (shows the order in which the genes appear on a chromosome NOT the exact distances apart the loci of the genes are)

  5. Figuring out the # of map units apart genes are… • Snapdragons with genotypes CCDD and ccdd are crossed. The CcDd progeny were then crossed with ccdd plants and we obtain  30% CcDd,  20% ccD 20% Ccdd and  30% ccddoffspring. We conclude: A. Genes C and D are linked, separated by 20 map units B. Genes C and D are linked, separated by 30 map units C. Genes C and D are linked, separated by 40 map units D. Genes C and D are unlinked

  6. Figuring out the # of map units apart genes are… • Snapdragons with genotypes CCDD and ccdd are crossed. The CcDd progeny were then crossed with ccdd plants and we obtain  30% CcDd,  20% ccD 20% Ccdd and  30% ccddoffspring. We conclude: A. Genes C and D are linked, separated by 20 map units B. Genes C and D are linked, separated by 30 map units C. Genes C and D are linked, separated by 40 map units (CORRECT 1% = 1 map unit, therefore 40% recombinants = 40 map units) D. Genes C and D are unlinked

  7. Try it… • Snapdragons with genotypes DDEE and ddee are crossed. The DdEe progeny are then crossed with ddee plants and we obtain 45% DdEe, 5 % ddEe, 5% Ddee and 45% ddee. How  far apart are genes D and E? a.      5 map units b.      10 map units c.      45 map units d.      Genes D and E are not linked

  8. Try it… • Snapdragons with genotypes DDEE and ddee are crossed. The DdEe progeny are then crossed with ddee plants and we obtain 45% DdEe, 5 % ddEe, 5% Ddee and 45% ddee. How  far apart are genes D and E? a.      5 map unitsb.      10 map units (COREECT 1% = 1 map unit, therefore 10% recombinants = 10 map units) c.      45 map units d.      Genes D and E are not linked

  9. Practice problems • Pg 291-292 #s: 4, 5, 8, 9, 13
