Questions for practice 1. Gene A and gene B are linked. A test cross produces 10 AaBb progeny out of a total of 100. The estimated map distance between gene A and B is: a. 10 b. 20 c. 30 d. 40 e. 50 2. For the pedigree, indicate the most probably mode of inheritance for the rare trait. 3. For the pedigree, what is the probability that the indicated female will produce an affected child?

Mendelian Genetics Topics: -Transmission of DNA during cell division Mitosis and Meiosis - Segregation - Sex linkage (problem: how to get a white-eyed female) - Inheritance and probability - Independent Assortment - Mendelian genetics in humans - Linkage - Gene mapping • Gene mapping in other organisms • (fungi, bacteria) • - Extensions to Mendelian Genetics • - Gene mutation • - Chromosome mutation • - Quantitative and population genetics
Linkage Maps Useful: - studying recombination (variation) - study the structure of the genome - study gene interaction (cis, trans) - diagnosis (marker gene linked to disease gene) - constructing particular genetic combinations
Linkage Maps Mapping two genes: Test cross: AaBb x aabb % RF = map distance 3 point test cross: - multiple crossovers undetected - underestimate true map distance
Gene Mapping Requirements: 1. Genetic material from two different individuals 2. Recombination Examples: fungi bacteria
Fungal Genetics Fungi: important organisms in the ecosystem - decomposers - pathogens important for humans - food - pathogens (Biology 4040 – Mycology)

Tetrad Analysis Some Fungi and algae: 4 products of a single meiosis can be recovered Advantages: 1. haploid organism - no dominance 2. examine a single meiosis - test cross not needed 3. small, easy to culture 4. Tetrad Analysis - map gene to centromere
Tetrad Analysis * Types of Tetrads: 1. Unordered - 4 products mixed together 2. Ordered (linear) - 4 products lined up, each haploid nucleus can be traced back through meiosis 3. Octads - mitotic division after meiosis 8 products (2 x 4)
Linear Tetrad Analysis + = a+ a a a a + a + Life Cycle: + Meiosis + Diploid Haploid + Mating: a x + a /+ n n 2n 4 haploid products

Linear Tetrad Analysis Two types of asci: 1. no crossover----> first division segregation (MI) 2. crossover between gene and centromere-----> second division segregation (MII)

Sex in Bacteria E. coli
Origin of Plasmid genes from Lactococcus lactis Bacteria used to make cheese and yogurt Plasmids: location of antibiotic resistant genes
Recombination in Bacteria and viruses Human Health: - antibiotic resistance - new strains of bacterial and viral diseases (bird flu) -horizontal gene transfer (between species)
Linkage: Summary Recombination: generates new combinations (inter and intrachromosomal) Genetic maps: - genes linked on the same chromosome - location of new genes relative to genes already mapped
Linkage: Summary Hunting for genes (Human Diseases) - genetic markers: DNA variation - co-inheritance with diseases using pedigree information - recombinants used to estimate linkage - MUN Medical Genetics
