PPT-MULTIPLE ALLELES Definition

Genes which have more than two alleles Have 3 or more alleles for the same gene or at a single locus  In Other Words there are 3 or more alleles that create the different traits  At most one individual will have 2 alleles or 1 pair  unit factors exist in pairs. In fact we already did this when we were discussing the ABO blood group polymorphism Just to get some notation out of the way though lets de64257ne ij as the frequency of genotype and as the frequency of allele Then ij if if Unfortunately the simpl be 10/13(midterm-yes . includes all up to now). I have the genetics review up on my page already, it would be wise for you to go ahead and start it. 2. nd. set of journals due 10/7. Incomplete Dominance. What you should know:.

In a population, there may be more than two alleles for a given trait. If a gene exists in more than two alleles, it is said to have . multiple alleles. Coat colour in rabbits. E.g.

HUH?. Incomplete Dominance. Neither allele is completely dominant over the other allele.. Natural Selection. Definition. : A process in which individuals that have certain inherited traits tend to survive and reproduce at higher rates than other individuals . because. of those traits. Stresses from the environment creates situations where the organisms with a beneficial trait will survive and reproduce, those without will die off. Multiple Alleles. More than 2 alleles for a gene. Dominance hierarchy (one allele dominates over the other). Ex. Fruit Fly eye colour . 4 alleles: Red, Apricot, Honey, White. To show dominance hierarchy use first letter of the gene name (E=Eye colour) and a superscript to reflect how dominant it is (1 is most dominant). LinkageLinkage can be physical or statistical wefocus on physical - easier to understandBecause of recombination Mendel developslaw of independent assortmentBut loci do not always assort independently Review 8. Important Vocabulary. Gene – piece of a chromosome that codes for a trait. Trait – a specific characteristic that varies from one individual to another. You are your parents!. Dad’s chromosomes.
