Gregor Johann Mendel
Gregor Mendel was an Austrian monk
who discovered the basic principles of
heredity through experiments in his
garden. Mendel's observations became
the foundation of modern genetics and
the study of heredity, and he is widely
considered a pioneer in the field of
genetics.
Synopsis
Gregor Mendel, known as the "father of
modern genetics," was born in Austria
in 1822. A monk, Mendel discovered
the basic principles of heredity through
experiments in his monastery's garden.
His experiments showed that the
inheritance of certain traits in pea
plants follows particular patterns,
subsequently becoming the foundation
of modern genetics and leading to the
study of heredity.
Genotype
Tall is dominant over short in pea
plants. Show the cross of a
homozygous short plant is crossed
with a homozygous tall plant.

heterozygous free are expecting a child.

Non Mendelian Traits
Non Mendelian Traits
5. Dominant alleles mask the effects of recessive alleles but co-
dominant
alleles have joint effects
Dominant alleles always show their encoded trait, when present in an
organism (they mask recessive alleles)
Recessive alleles only express their encoded traits when no other alleles are
present
• Dominant alleles code for functional proteins, while recessive alleles code for non-
functional proteins
Codominant alleles can have joint effects if both are
present* *PatterŶs of iŶheritaŶce, like CodoŵiŶaŶce, that do Ŷot follow MeŶdel’s
observations are called Non-Mendelian inheritance patterns.
Practice!
In a species of birds, incomplete
dominance between alleles for black
(B) and white (b) feathers is observed.
Heterozygotes are blue. If two blue
birds are crossed, what will be the
possible genotypes and
phenotypes?

In a certain fish, blue scales and
red scales are codominant. When a
fish has the genotype Bb, it has a

fish with a fish that only has Blue
Scales.
