LECTURE 9 & 10 PATTERN OF INHERITANCE I & II
Mendel’s Law of Segregation
* If the blending model of inheritance were
correct, the F1 hybrids from a cross between
purple -flowered and white-flowered pear plants
would have pale purple flowers, a trait
intermediate between those of the P generation.
*All the F1 offspring had flowers just as purple
as the purple-flowered parents.
*What happen to white flowers?
*If it were lost, then the F1 plants could produce
only purple-flowered offspring in the F2
generation.
*But when Mendel allowed the F2 self-pollinate,
the white-flower trait reappeared in the F2
generation.
* Mendel reason that the heritable factor for
white flowers did not disappear in the F1 plants
but was somehow hidden, or masked, when
purple-flower factor was present.
* In Mendel’s terminology, purple flower colour is
a dominant trait, and white flower colour is a
recessive trait.
* Reappearance of white-flowered plants in the
F2 generation was evidence that the heritable
factor causing white flowers had not been
diluted or destroyed by coexisting with the
purple-flower factor in the F1 hybrids.
Mendel’s Model
A. First, alternative versions of genes account for variations in inherited characters.
A. Alleles: Alternative versions of a gene.
B. Second, for each character, an organism inherits two copies (that is, two alleles) of a
gene, one from each parent.
C. Third, if the two alleles at a locus differ, then one, the dominant alleles, determines
the organisms’ appearance; the other, the recessive allele, has no noticeable effect
on the organism’s appearance.
D. Fourth, the law of segregation, states that the two the two allele for a heritable
character segregate (separate from each other) during gamete formation and end up in
different gametes.

Monohybrid Cross
A cross involving a single gene.
To find the chance of the next baby having albanism, we construct a
punnett square.
Dihybrid Cross
Genotype : AA : Aa : aa = 1:2:1
Phenotype : 3 Pigmentation : 1 Albino
Phenotypic ratio 9:3:3:1 is
typical of a dihybrid cross in
the F2 generation where the
F1 are double
heterozygotes.
P 1 = Pure Breed (original
gene, no cross)
F 1 = First generation
9 : 3 : 3 :1
IS THE TYPICAL OF A DIHYBRID
CROSS WHEN BOTH PARENTS
ARE DOUBLE
HETEROZYGOUS.
