Explore the extensions and variations of Mendelian analysis, including single gene modifications, incomplete dominance, multiple alleles, lethal alleles, and gene pair modifications. Understand complex genetic interactions and expression modifications.
E N D
Extensions of Mendelian Analysis • Modifications of Mendelian Ratios • Single Gene modifications • Two gene pair modifications: modified 9:3:3:1 ratios • Modification of Expression
Single Gene modifications • Incomplete dominance (partial dominance) • Multiple alleles • Lethal alleles
Incomplete dominance (partial dominance) • Expression of a heterozygous phenotype that is distinct from and usually intermediate to either homozygous phenotype
Incomplete dominance (partial dominance) Tay Sachs and Sickle Cell Anemia Heterozygous are intermediate at the biochemical level.
Bombay phenotype • H allele affected • Recessive epistasis • Show O phenotype • Genotype variable
Lethal alleles • Yellow dominant to Agouti coat color • No purebred yellow • Deletion mutation • Recessive for lethality
Two gene pair modifications: modified 9:3:3:1 ratios • Epistasis • Suppression • Complementary gene action
Modification of Expression • Pleiotropic effects • Penetrance and Expressivity
Penetrance No expression
