Analysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits Suppose a couple, both phenotypically normal, have two children: one unaffected daughter and one son affected with a genetic disorder. The phenotype ratio is 1:1, making it difficult to determine whether the trait is autosomal or X-linked. With your knowledge of genetics, what are the genotypes of the parents and children in the autosomal case? In the X-linked case?
More Crosses with Pea Plants: The Principle of Independent Assortment Determine the possible genotypes of the following parents by analyzing the phenotypes of their children. In this case, we will assume that brown eyes (B) is dominant to blue (b) and that right-handedness (R) is dominant to left-handedness (r). a. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed brown eyes, right-handed Offspring: 3/4 brown eyes, right-handed 1/4 blue eyes, right-handed b. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed blue eyes, right-handed Offspring: 6/16 blue eyes, right-handed 2/16 blue eyes, left-handed 6/16 brown eyes, right-handed 2/16 brown eyes, left-handed c. Parents: brown eyes, right-handed blue eyes, left-handed Offspring: 1/4 brown eyes, right-handed 1/4 brown eyes, left-handed 1/4 blue eyes, right-handed 1/4 blue eyes, left-handed
Variations on a Theme by Mendel Pea plants usually have white or red flowers. A strange pea-plant variant is found that has pink flowers. A selfcross of this plant yields the following phenotypes: 30 red flowers 62 pink flowers 33 white flowers What are the genotypes of the parents? What is the genotype of the progeny with red flowers?
Crossing Pea Plants: Mendels Study of Single Traits An unspecified characteristic controlled by a single gene is examined in pea plants. Only two phenotypic states exist for this trait. One phenotypic state is completely dominant to the other. A heterozygous plant is self-crossed. What proportion of the progeny of plants exhibiting the dominant phenotype is homozygous?
Variations on a Theme by Mendel A characteristic of snapdragons amenable to genetic analysis is flower color. Imagine that a true-breeding red- flowered variety is crossed to a pure line having white flowers. The progeny are exclusively pink-flowered. Diagram this cross, including genotypes for all P1 and F1 phenotypes. What is the mode of inheritance? Let F = red and f = white.
Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits a. What pattern of inheritance is suggested by the following pedigree? b. For genotype assignment, assume that the pedigree is for an autosomal dominant trait and that the affected male in the first generation is heterozygous. Assign genotypes to all other individuals in the pedigree.
Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits Huntington disease is a rare, fatal disease that usually develops in the fourth or fifth decade of life. It is caused by a single autosomal dominant allele. A phenotypically normal man in his twenties who has a 2-year-old son of his own learns that his father has developed Huntington disease. What is the probability that he himself will develop the disease? What is the chance that his young son will eventually develop the disease?
Crossing Pea Plants: Mendels Study of Single Traits Of the following, which are phenotypes and which are genotypes? a. Aa b. tall plants c. BB d. abnormal cell shape e. AaBb
Crossing Pea Plants: Mendels Study of Single Traits If you are informed that tune deafness is a heritable trait, and that a tune deaf couple is expecting a child, can you conclude that the child will be tune deaf?
Analysis of Autosomal Recessive and Dominant Traits Does the indicated individual (III-5) show the trait in question?
Attached are three pedigrees. For each trait, considerwhether it is or is not consistent with X-linked recessiveinheritance. In a sentence or two, indicate why or why not.
In humans, color vision depends on genes encodingthree pigments. The R (red pigment) and G (green pigment) genes are close together on the X chromosome,whereas the B (blue pigment) gene is autosomal. A recessive mutation in any one of these genes can cause colorblindness. Suppose that a color-blind man married awoman with normal color vision. The four sons from thismarriage were color-blind, and the five daughters werenormal. Specify the most likely genotypes of both parents and their children, explaining your reasoning. (Apedigree drawing will probably be helpful.) (Problem 50is by Rosemary Redfield.)
