Incomplete dominance When there is dominance, the heterozygote has the same phenotype as the dominant homozygote. However, dominance is not always observed. Many genes shoe incomplete dominance, in which the heterozygote has a phenotype intermediate to the two homozygotes.11. If you cross true-breeding four o

Stutt with the phenotype which will give you an idea of what your genotype is. In complete dominance a dominant trait caneither be homozygous dominant (AA) or heterozygous (Aa). There is no way for us to tell which one it is. If you encounter this situation, flip the coins to determine your genotype. Two heads means homozygous dominant while a head and tails means heterozygous. Conveisely, if you are recessive for a trait, then you must be homozygous recessive (aa). If you are workrng with an incomplete dominance trait, then you will either be homozygous dominant, heterozygous, or homozygous recessive, This is a clear cut situation. รขย€ย‹ I'm confused in finding the genotype?

Differentiate amongcomplete dominance, incomplete dominance andco-dominance.

3. Understand an allelicseries -How many possible alleles are there for any given gene? Isthere only one recessive allele for a gene? Is there only onedominant allele for a gene? Is an allele always recessive ordominant with respect to other alleles of the gene?

4. What is a lethalallele? Are lethal alleles usually dominant or recessive? Are thereany exceptions? (Hint: Huntington disease in humans). How do wemaintain stocks with lethal alleles?

5. How can you tell if anallele is lethal? If one of the parents has a lethal allele, wouldall the possible genotypes be present in the progeny? What wouldhappen to the phenotypic ratios of the progeny?

6. What ispleiotropy?

7. How can you tell if atrait is determined by more than one gene? What ratios ofphenotypes in the F2 generation would you expect if a trait isdetermined by a single gene?

8. What is epistasis? Howcan the genotype at a locus affect the phenotype determined by thegenotype at another locus? What are complementary gene action,duplicate gene action, dominant suppression, dominant epistasis,and recessive epistasis?
