INHERITANCE OF TRAITS

Page 4: 05 Inheritance

The Genetic Lottery

• As every individual carries two alleles for a particular gene, the chance of inheriting a particular one of these alleles is 1 in 2 or ½

• So the chance of if inheriting your genotype for any trait is ½ x ½ = ¼

Dihybrid Crosses• Consider two traits• W = straight brow, w = widows peak• D = detatched earlobes, d = attached• If we cross 2 people who are heterozygous

for both traits, how would the punnet square look and what would be the phenotypic ratios?– NOTE: Genotypic / phenotypic ratios can be

represented as fractions, decimals, ratios or percentages

Test Crosses

• Prior to it being possible to establish an individual’s genotype via molecular means, a test cross was used.

• Mono or dihybrid test crosses involve breeding the unknown individual with a homozygous recessive.

• Eg. An unknown black cat (DD or Dd) is mated with a grey cat (dd).

• If just one grey kitten is produced, a Dd genotype of the unknown is confirmed

• The general rule is that 16 consecutive black kittens will provide reasonable confidence that the unknown is DD

Page 11: 05 Inheritance

Linked Genes• If two genes are said to be linked, this

means that they are located in a simillar position on the same chromosome and have a higher chance of being passed on together.

• Eg. RBC shape and RH blood group are linked– RH gene: D = Rh+, d = Rh-

– EL1 gene: E = eliptical RBCs, e = normal RBCs

Page 12: 05 Inheritance

Linked Genes

• The only way the alleles of linked genes can be separated is through crossing over.

• Based on the above, Sarah is far more likely to produce parental eggs (DE or de) than recombinant eggs (De or dE)

Page 13: 05 Inheritance

Linked Genes• Based on the spacing between linked genes, a

probability of recombination can be expressed.• In the case of RH and EL1, the probability of

recombination is 0.01 for each type

Page 14: 05 Inheritance

Detecting Linkage

• Do a punnet square for a test cross with a known heterozygote (aabb x AaBb).– Genotypic ratio for unlinked genes is approx. 1:1:1:1

• If the genes are linked, instead you should see a greater proportion of parental rather than recombinant genotypes.

Genotype AaBb aabb Aabb aaBb

Unlinked 25% 25% 25% 25%

Linked 44% 44% 6% 6%

Page 15: 05 Inheritance

Detecting Linkage• A simple calculation can be used to either

predict distance between loci or outcomes for linked genes

– So, in a litter of 16 mice, if 7 have brown, curly hair, 7 have black, straight hair, 1 has brown straight hair and 1 has black curly hair ...

– We can estimate these gene loci to be

= 12.5 map units apart

Distance between loci =

Page 16: 05 Inheritance

What can you predict from the following test cross results?

• Independent assortment (unlinked)

• Linked, with no crossing over

• Linked with crossing over

• Now draw a representation of the heterozygote’s chromosomes

Genotype AaBb Aabb aaBb aabb

Ratio 1.1 0.9 1.2 1.0

Genotype AaBb aabb

Ratio 1.0 1.0

Genotype AaBb Aabb aaBb aabb

Autosomal RecessiveKey Features

• Presence of affected individuals can frequently skip a generation.• In large samples there will be an even distribution of affected males and

females• It is possible for two normal individuals to have an affected child

Page 23: 05 Inheritance

Autosomal DominantKey Features

• It is not possible for the disease to skip a generation • Homozygous affecteds are rare as they will always have affected offspring,

meaning that lineage is often short-lived.• In large samples there will be an even distribution of affected males and females

Page 24: 05 Inheritance

X-Linked Recessive• That disease will frequently skip a generation as

females can be carriers• Majority of affecteds are usually male• All sons of an affected female will be affected• All daughters of an affected male will be carriers

Key features

Page 25: 05 Inheritance

X-Linked DominantKey Features

• Affected male will always pass on the trait to his daughters, but not his sons• In large samples there will be an even distribution of affected males and

females• Can not skip a generation
