CO 03 Extension to Mendel: complexities in relating genotype to phenotype
Extension to Mendel Single-gene inheritance : deviation from complete dominance and recessiveness. Multiple alleles One gene determine more than one trait 2. Multifactorial inheritance
Extension to Mendel Single-gene inheritance : deviation from complete dominance and recessiveness. Multiple alleles One gene determine more than one trait 2. Multifactorial inheritance
Fig. 3.2 Different dominant relationship
Fig. 3.3 Pink flower are the result of imcomplete dominance
Fig. 3.4 In codominance, F1 hybrid display the traits of both parents dotted spotted
Extension to Mendel Single-gene inheritance : deviation from complete dominance and recessiveness. Multiple alleles Recessive lethal allele One gene determine more than one trait 2. Multifactorial inheritance
Fig. 3.5 ABO blood type are determined by three alleles of one gene
Fig. 3.6 How to establish the dominance relations between multiple alleles
Mutations are the source of new alleles Wild-type allele: frequency more than 1% Mutant allele: frequency less than 1% black/yellow black Monomorphic (One wild-type allele) agouti ABO blood type: polymorphic
Extension to Mendel Single-gene inheritance : deviation from complete dominance and recessiveness. Multiple alleles Recessive lethal allele One gene determine more than one trait 2. Multifactorial inheritance
Two alleles with recessive lethal Some alleles may cause lethality
Extension to Mendel Single-gene inheritance : deviation from complete dominance and recessiveness. Multiple alleles Recessive lethal allele One gene determine more than one trait A single gene determines a number of distinct and seemingly unrelated characteristics is known as pleiotropy.
Pleiotropy Sickle-cell anemia Mutant -globin aggregates to form long-fiber
Pleiotropy of sickle-cell anemia: dominance relation vary Cells break down Oxygen drops Cells break down before malarial has a chance to reproduce
Extension to Mendel Single-gene inheritance : deviation from complete dominance and recessiveness. Multiple alleles One gene determine more than one trait Multifactorial inheritance Two genes can interact to determine one trait Heterogeneous trait The same genotype does not always produce the same phenotype
Extension to Mendel Single-gene inheritance : deviation from complete dominance and recessiveness. Multiple alleles One gene determine more than one trait Multifactorial inheritance Two genes can interact to determine one trait Heterogeneous trait The same genotype does not always produce the same phenotype
Fig. 3.11 How two genes interact to produce novel phenotypes F2 self cross 9:3:3:1, four distinct phenotypes, dihybrid cross of two independent assortment genes
Fig. 3.12 Complementary gene action One dominant allele of each of two genes is necessary to produce the phenotypes.
Fig. 3.13 Epistatic: the effect of one gene hides the effect of the other gene Addition of A or B sugars Recessive epistasis H allele is epistatic to the I gene
Fig. 3.14 Dominant epistasis A produce particular color, but B dominant allele epistatic to A
Table 3.2 Four classes of genotypes produce a variety of phenotypic ratios
Fig. 3.15 Genetic Heterogeneity
Heterogeneous trait A mutation at any one of a number of genes can give rise to the same phenotype
Fig. 3.18 Pedigree analyses
Extension to Mendel Single-gene inheritance : deviation from complete dominance and recessiveness. Multiple alleles One gene determine more than one trait Multifactorial inheritance Two genes can interact to determine one trait Heterogeneous trait The same genotype does not always produce the same phenotype
The same genotype does not always produce the same phenotype Modifier genes Environment Penetrance: occurrence in population Expressivity: seriousness in the individuals
Modifier genes Major genes have a large influence, while modifier genes have a more subtle, secondary effect. Modifier genes alter the phenotypes produced by the allele of other genes. Example: tail length of mouse T allele: 10%, 50%, 75% of the normal tail-length
Fig. 3.19 The Environment can affect the phenotypic expression Permissive temp. Restrictive temp.
Even continuous variation can be explained by extensions to Mendelian analysis
The more genes or alleles, the more possible phenotypic classes, and the greater the similarity to continuous variation
Variations on complete dominance do not negate Mendel’s law of Segregation
Plant incompatibility system promote outbreeding and allele proliferation Fig. 3.8
