- 2. Explain the difference: incomplete dominance co-dominance
- 3. Incomplete Dominance • Neither allele is completely dominant over the other allele. • A heterozygous phenotype – A mixture or blending of the two
- 4. Four-o’ clock flowers • Incomplete dominance • Neither Red (R) • or White (W) is dominant When a homozygous red flower (RR) Mix with a homozygous white flower (WW), the alleles blend in the hybrid (RW) to produce pink flowers
- 5. Andalusian Chickens • Incomplete dominance • Neither Black (B) or White (W) are dominant The offspring of a black feathered chicken (BB) and a white feathered chicken (WW) are blue (BW) – BLUE HEN!!
- 6. Codominance • Two equally dominant alleles are expressed at the same time. • Heterozygous phenotype will have both phenotypes visible
- 7. Shorthorn Cattle • Co- dominance • Homozygous red (RR) • Homozygous white (WW) The offspring of will have both red and white hairs (RW) The offspring are heterozygous and called “roan”
- 9. Sickle- Cell Anemia • Co- dominance • Caused by an abnormal Hemoglobin, the protein that red blood cells use to carry oxygen Normal hemoglobin is (RR) Sickle Cell shaped blood cells (SS) People who are carriers (heterozygous) for the disease there is a mixture of both normal and sickle cell (RS)
- 10. Problem: Codominance • Show the cross between an individual with sickle-cell anemia and another who is a carrier but not sick. N S S S NS NS SS SS - NS (2) SS (2) - ratio 1:1 - carrier (2); sick (2) - ratio 1:1 GENOTYPES: PHENOTYPES:
- 11. Let’s Stop and Think… Let’s say there are two alleles for the hair color trait- red and blue What would be the resulting phenotype of a heterozygous pair if the alleles showed incomplete dominance? A. Red B. Blue C. Purple D. Red and Blue patches
- 12. Let’s Stop and Think… Let’s say there are two alleles for the hair color trait- red and blue What would be the resulting phenotype of a heterozygous pair if the alleles showed codominance? A. Red B. Blue C. Purple D. Red and Blue patches
- 13. MULTIPLE ALLELISM • When there is more than 2 alleles possible for a given gene. • Allows for a larger number of genetic and phenotypic possibilities.
- 14. Blood types are A, B, O, and AB. AB blood is a co-dominant trait. Both the A blood and the B blood need to be dominant in order to make a combination of co-dominant blood types, which is AB. IA IA IA iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii IB IB IB i IA IB IA IB IA IB IA IB IA IB IB i IA i ii i
- 15. BLOOD TYPES Antibody Anti – B Anti – A None Anti – A, Anti – B • 4 ABO blood types •3 alleles of the I gene IA = A antigen on RBC IB = B antigen on RBC i = neither A nor B antigen Genotype IAIA or IAi IBIB or IBi IAIB ii Blood type A B AB O http://sydfish.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/bloodcells.jpg
- 20. Codominance & Multiple Alleles • Human blood type is an example of both codominance and a trait with multiple alleles. • AB = universal acceptor • O = universal donor BLOOD TYPE GENOTYPE CAN RECIVE BLOOD FROM A IAIA , IAi A, O B IBIB , IBi B, O AB IAIB A, B, AB, O O ii O
- 21. PRACTICE QUESTIONS 1. In a certain case a woman’s blood type was tested to be AB. She married and her husbands blood type was type A. Their children have blood types A, AB, and B. What are the genotypes of the parents? What are the genotypic ratios of the children?
- 22. 2. In a certain breed of cow the gene for red fur, R, is codominant with that of white fur, W. What would be the phenotypic & genotypic ratios of the offspring if you breed a red cow and a white bull? What would they be if you breed a red & white cow with a red & white bull?
- 23. 3. A rooster with grey feathers is mated with a hen of the same phenotype. Among their offspring 15 chicks are grey, 6 are black and 8 are white. a. What is the simplest explanation for the inheritance of these colors in chickens? b. What offspring would you expect from the mating of a grey rooster and a black hen?
