chapter 16 genetics
monohybird crosses
-
parental generation
-
homozygous
heterozygous
incomplete dominance
neither[ parental trait dominates the other, so this pair of alleles are incomplete
-
-
-
punnett square
-
-
complete donminance
difficult to know what the genotype of any particular plant is unless the plant shows the recessive trait
test cross
pure-bred lines
the homozygous recessives can also be kept as a special line, being selfed and kept pure
a cross involving the plant in question and one that is homozygous recessive for the trait being studied
multiple alleles
at least 900 sites exist at which point mutations can occur, and of course, any mutation may involve several nucleotides. consequently, the gene may exist in many forms
only a single character is analyzed and studied; the inheritance of other traits is not considered. #
-
when achlorophlllous palnt is crossed with a green, chlorophyll-bearing plant, the outcome depends on which plant is the pollen parent and which is the ovule parent
variegation
the presence of sports or sectors that are white, reed, or orange on a plant that is otherwise green
lethal
-
lethal allele
be difficult to detect if its effect occurs early. if it affects basic metabolic functions such as respiration, DNA replication, cellulose synthesis, or the structure of histones, plants homozygous for it probably die while still very young; in some instances, the gametes die even before fertilization
dihybrid cross
independent assortment
-
two genes are on separate chromosomes, the alleles of one gene move independently of the alleles of the other gene
-
epistasis
quantitative trait loci
pleiotropic efffects
an intermediate is part of several metabolic pathways and is produced by only one enzume, a mutation in tha tenzyme's gene affect5s all of the pathways and alters several different traits.multiple phenotype affects of one mutation
extremely complex crosses, involving hundreds or thousands of progeny, may have to be performed to determine what fraction of a particular phenotype is correlated wiht a particular gene; the genes or other portions of DNA
-
polyploid
-
-
paralogs
gene are still so similar to the wilds-type allele that they can be recognized as having originated as duplicates of it
gene family
ex. five histone proteins that make up nucleosomes are needed in such abundance tha teach nucleus may have up to 600 paralogs of the genesk, not just two as for most traits;
genotype
phenotype
replicon
-
ribonucleotides, not deoxyribonucleotides, and are polymerized into short pieces while also acting as a substrate for DNA-synthesizing enzyme #
one strand of the DNA double helix is cut, and the two strands separate from each other in a short region, forming a small "bubble"
the expression of those alleles in the individual's size, shape, or meatbolism
-
the science of inheritance, the chemical basis of genetic inheritance is the gene, the sequence of DNA nucleotides that guides the construction of RNA and proteins and also controls construction of more copies of the genes themselves. #
