  1. Mendelian Genetics

  2. Gregor Mendel • 1822-1884 • Responsible for the laws governing inheritance of traits.

  3. Gregor Mendel • Austrian Monk • Studied the inheritance of traits in pea plants • Developed the Laws of Inheritance • Mendel’s work was not recognized until the early 20th century

  4. Gregor Mendel • Between 1856 and 1863, Mendel cultivated and tested some 28,000 pea plants. • He found that the plants offspring retained traits of the parents • He is known as the “Father of Genetics”

  5. Gregor’s Garden • The site of Mendel’s garden in the Czech Republic

  6. Particulate Inheritance • Mendel stated that physical traits are inherited as “particles” • Mendel did not know that the “particles” were DNA and chromosomes.

  7. Punnett Square • Used to help solve genetic problems. • Uses probability.

  8. Punnett Square

  9. Genotype and Phenotype • Genotype – gene combination for a trait • Ex. RR, Rr, rr • Phenotype – the physical feature resulting from the genotype • Ex. Red, pink, white

  10. Genotype and Phenotype • Genotype of alleles: • R = red flower • r = yellow flower • All genes occur in pairs, so TWO alleles affect a characteristic • Possible combinations are: • Genotypes: RR Rrrr • Phenotypes: Red Red Yellow

  11. Genotypes • Homozygous • Gene combination involving two dominant or two recessive genes (ex. RR or rr) • Also called pure • Heterozygous • Gene combination of one dominant and one recessive allele (ex. Rr) • Also called hybrid

  12. Genes AND Environment determine characteristics

  13. Mendel’s Pea Plant Experiments

  14. Why Peas?(Pisum sativum) • Can be grown in a small area. • Can produce a lot of offspring. • Will produce pure plants when allowed to self-pollinate over several generations. • Can also be artificially cross-pollinated.

  15. Reproduction In Flowering Plants • Pollen contains sperm • Produced by the stamen • Carries sperm to the eggs for pollination • Ovary produces eggs • Found inside the flower • Self-pollination • Can occur within the same flower • Cross-pollination • Can occur between unrelated flowers

  16. Mendel’s Experimental Methods • Mendel hand-pollinated flowers using a paintbrush • He could snip the stamens to prevent self-pollination. • He traced traits through several generations.

  17. How Mendel Began • Mendel produced pure strains of pea plants by allowing the plants to self-pollinate over several generations.

  18. Eight Pea Plant Traits • Seed shape – round (R) or wrinkled (r) • Seed color – yellow (Y) or green (y) • Pod shape – smooth (S) or wrinkled (s) • Pod color – green (G) or yellow (g) • Seed coat color – gray (G) or white (g) • Flower position – axial (A) or terminal (a) • Flower color – purple (P) or white (p) • Plant height – tall (T) or short (t)

  21. Mendel’s Experimental Results

  22. Did the Observed Ratio Match the Theoretical Ratio? • The theoretical or expected ratio of plants producing round or wrinkled seeds is 3 round : 1 wrinkled. • Mendel’s observed ratio was 2.96 : 1. This discrepancy is due to statistical error. • The larger the sample, the more nearly results reflect the theoretical ratios

  23. Mendel’s Generations • Parental Generation (P1) • The original (parental) generation in a breeding experiment. • First Filial Generation (F1) • The first generation of offspring in a breeding experiment. • From breeding individuals in the P1 generation. • Second Filial Generation (F2) • The second generation of offspring in a breeding experiment. • From breeding individuals in the F1 generation.

  24. Following the Generations Cross two pure plants. TT x tt Cross two hybrids Get 3 tall : 1 short TT, Tt, tt Results in all Hybrids Tt

  25. Monohybrid Crosses

  26. P1 Monohybrid Cross • Trait : Seed Shape • Alleles : R – round, r – wrinkled • Cross : round seeds X wrinkled seeds RR x rr r r Genotype: Rr Phenotype: Round Genotypic Ratio: All alike Phenotypic Ratio: All alike R Rr Rr R Rr Rr

  27. P1 Monohybrid Cross Review • Homozygous dominant x homozygous recessive • Offspring all heterozygous (hybrids) • Offspring called F1 generation • Genotypic and phenotypic ratio is all alike.

  28. F1 Monohybrid Cross • Trait : Seed Shape • Alleles : R – round, r – wrinkled • Cross : round seeds X round seeds Rr x Rr R r Genotype: RR, Rr, rr Phenotype: Round & Wrinkled Genotypic Ratio: 1 : 2 : 1 Phenotypic Ratio: 3 : 1 R RR Rr r Rr rr

  29. F1 Monohybrid Cross • Heterozygous X Heterozygous • Offspring • 25% homozygous dominant --RR • 50% heterozygous -- Rr • 25% homozygous recessive – rr • Offspring called F2 generation • Genotypic ratio is 1 : 2 : 1 • Phenotypic ratio is 3 : 1

  30. What do the peas look like?

  31. Test Cross • Mendel then crossed a pure and a hybrid from his F2 generation. • This is known as an F2 or test cross • There are two possible test crosses • Homozygous dominant x hybrid • Homozygous recessive x hybrid

  32. F2 Monohybrid Cross (1st) • Trait : Seed Shape • Alleles : R – round, r – wrinkled • Cross : round seeds X round seeds RR x Rr R r Genotype: RR, Rr Phenotype: Round Genotypic Ratio: 1 : 1 Phenotypic Ratio: All alike R RR Rr R RR Rr

  33. F2 Monohybrid Cross (2nd) • Trait : Seed Shape • Alleles : R – round, r – wrinkled • Cross : wrinkled seeds X round seeds rr x Rr R r Genotype: Rr, rr Phenotype: Round & Wrinkled Genotypic Ratio: 1 : 1 Phenotypic Ratio: 1 : 1 r Rr rr r Rr rr

  34. F2 Monohybrid Cross Review • Homozygous x heterozygous (hybrid) • Offspring • 50% homozygous – RR or rr • 50% heterozygous – Rr • Phenotypic Ratio – 1 : 1 • Genotypic Ratio – 1 : 1 • Called a test cross because the offspring have the SAME genotype as parents.

  35. Mendel’s Laws

  36. Results of Monohybrid Crosses • Inheritable factors or genes are responsible for all heritable characteristics. • Phenotype is based on genotype. • Each trait is based on two alleles, one from ma, the other from pa. • True breeding individuals are homozygous (both alleles are the same).

  37. Law of Dominance • In a cross of parents that are PURE for CONSTRASTING TRAITS, only ONE FORM of the trait WILL APPEAR in the next generation. • All offspring will be HETEROZYGOUS and will EXPRESS only the DOMINANT TRAIT. • RR x rr yields all Rr

  38. Law of Segregation • During the formation of gametes (eggs or sperm), the two alleles responsible for a trait separate from each other. • Alleles for a trait are then recombined at fertilization, producing the genotype for the traits of offspring.

  39. Law of Segregation

  40. Law of Independent Assortment • Alleles for different traits are distributed to sex cells & offspring independently from one another. • Each pair of alleles segregates independently during gamete formation. • Formula = 2n (n = the # of heterozygotes) • This law can be illustrated using dihybrid crosses.

  41. How many gametes will be produced for the following allele arrangements? • 2n = (n = # of heterozygotes) • RrYy • AaBbCCDd • MmNnOoPPQQRrssTtUu

  42. Answers: • RrYy • 2n = 22 = 4 gamete combinations • RY Ry rY ry • AaBbCCDd • 2n = 23 = 8 gamete combinations • ABCD ABCd AbCD AbCd aBCD aBCd abCD aBcD • MmNnOoPPQQRrssTtUu • 2n = 26 = 64 gamete combinations

  43. Dihybrid Crosses • A breeding experiment that tracks the inheritance of TWO different TRAITS. • Ex. Tail size and Fur Color

  44. Dihybrid Crosses • Traits = seed shape & seed color • Alleles • R (round) • r (wrinkled) • Y (yellow) • y (green) RrYy x RrYy RY Ry rY ry RY Ry rY ry All possible gamete combinations

  47. Dihybrid Cross • Round/Yellow: 9 • Round/Green: 3 • Wrinkled/Yellow: 3 • Wrinkled/Green: 1 9 : 3 : 3 : 1
