Sex Chromosomes ...‘X’ and ‘Y’ chromosomes that determine the sex of an individual in many organisms, Females: XX Males: XY

a hemizygous: condition where gene is present in only one dose. male
X Linkage …the pattern of inheritance resulting from genes located on the X chromosome.
X-Linked Genes …refers specifically to genes on the X-chromosome, with no homologs on the Y chromosome.

Sex Linkage to Ponder • Female is homozygous recessive X-linked gene, • what percentage of male offspring will express? • what percentage of female offspring will express if, • mate is hemizygous for the recessive allele? • mate is hemizygous for the dominant allele? • Repeat at home with female heterozygous X-linked gene!
Sex-Linked vs. Autosomal • autosomal chromosome: non-sex linked chromosome, • autosomal gene: a gene on an autosomal chromosome, • autosomes segregate identically in reciprocal crosses.
X-Linked Recessive TraitsCharacteristics • Many more males than females show the phenotype, • female must have both parents carrying the allele, • male only needs a mother with the allele, • Few (or none) of the offspring of affected males show the disorder, • all of his daughters are carriers, • half of the sons born to these daughters are carriers.
X-Linked Dominant • Affected males married to unaffected females pass the phenotype to their daughters, but not to their sons, • Heterozygous females married to unaffected males pass the phenotype on to half their sons and daughters, • Homozygous dominant females pass the phenotype on to all their sons and daughters,
Autosomal Dominant • Phenotypes appear in every generation, • Affected males and females pass the phenotype to equal proportions of their sons and daughters.
Pedigree for Very Rare Trait 1/2 1/2 Recessive? ---> Yes! 1/2 x 1/2 x ? 1/2 = 1/8 Autosomal? X-Linked? ---> Yes!
Linkage • Genes located on the same chromosome segregate together and are said to be linked.

Recombination Frequency …or Linkage Ratio: the percentage of recombinant types, • if 50%, then the genes are not linked, • if less than 50%, then linkage is observed.
Linkage • Genes located on the same chromosome do not recombine, • unless crossing over occurs, • The recombination frequency gives an estimate of the distance between the genes.
Recombination Frequencies • Genes that are adjacent have a recombination frequency near 0%, • Genes that are very far apart on a chromosome have a linkage ratio of 50%, • The relative distance between linked genes influences the amount of recombination observed.
