Mendel’s Principles
 The Principle of Dominance: In a
heterozygote, one allele may conceal
the presence of another. (This means the
dominant allele is observed in the phenotype)
 The Principle of Segregation: In a
heterozygote, two different alleles
segregate from each other during the
formation of gametes. (This means that the pair
of alleles encoding the traits in each parental plant had
separated or segregated from one another during meiosis)
 The Principle of Dominance: In a
heterozygote, one allele may conceal the
presence of another.
--genetic function
--control phenotype
--regulate physiological consequences
 The Principle of Segregation: In a
heterozygote, two different alleles
segregate from each other during the
formation of gametes.
--genetic transmission
-- may control phenotype
--may regulate physiological consequences

Mendel’s Principles
The Principle of Independent
Assortment: The alleles of different
genes segregate,(assort) independently
of each other (The traits in the offspring of this crosses did not
always match the combinations of traits in the parental organisms).
In humans, diploid cells contain 46 chromosomes,
23 female chromosomes
23 male chromosomes
During meiosis, the pairs of similar homologous chromosome are divided in half to
form haploid cells, and this separation is random.
Recombination scrambles pieces of maternal and paternal genes, which ensures that genes
assort independently from one another, except genetic linkage

Dominance
The Principle of
Segregation
Applications of Mendel’s
Principles
Mendel’s principles can be used to
predict the outcomes of crosses between
different strains of organisms.
Three methods to predict outcomes
– The Punnett Square Method
– The Forked-Line Method
– The Probability Method

Probability
 The probability of an event is the frequency of that event in the sample.
 Express the likelihood of the occurrence of a particular event.
 For a coin toss:
– The probability of heads is 1/2. =0.5
– The probability of tails is 1/2.
 For two heterozygotes (Gg) producing an offspring:
– The probability of the incorporation of G in each gamete in GG zygote is
1/2 and 1/2. 1/2 x 1/2=1/4
– The probability of the incorporation of G or g in Gg is 1/2 because there two
possible ways “Gg or gG”... 1/4+1/4= 1/2 but not in the context of the total
probability (4)= 1/4
– The probability of gg is 1/4. (1/2 x1/2)
© John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
Two rules of probability
The Multiplicative (Product) Rule
 If the events A and B are independent, the
probability that they will occur together, denoted
P(A and B), is P(A)  P(B).
 States that the probability of two or more
independent events occurring together is
calculated by multiplying their independent
probabilities
 Example: probability of drawing the ace of hearts [an
ace (A) AND a heart (H)], P(A and H)
P(A) = 4/52 P(H) = 1/4
P(A)  P(H) = 4/52  1/4 = 1/52
The Additive (Addition) Rule
 If the events A and B are independent, the
probability that at least one of them occurs,
denoted P(A or B), is given by P(A) + P(B)
 States that the probability of any one of two or or
mutually exclusive events is calculated by adding
their probabilities
 Example: Probability of a drawing EITHER an ace
OR a king, P(A or H)
P(A) = 4/52 P(H) = 4/52
P(A or H) = (4/52)  (4/52) = 8/52

Mathematical definition of probability
P: a/n
where
a = the outcome of interest
n = the number of possible outcomes.
Examples
• P(getting a head on a coin toss) =
1/2
• P(rolling a 1 on a die) = 1/6
• P(drawing the ace of spades) = 1/54
• P(dominant offspring from the cross
Aa x Aa) = 3/4
• If P = 0, the event is impossible
• P(rolling a 7 on a standard die) = 0
• If P = 1, the event is certain
• P(rolling a number less than 10) = 1

Testing Genetic Hypotheses
Hypothesis: a well-formulated
scientific idea
Data collected from observations or
from experimentation enable scientists
to test hypotheses.
Genetics: Are the results of a cross
consistent with a hypothesis?

Determine the degrees of freedom. (n-1: different

Mendelian Principles in
Human Genetics
Obstacles to Human Genetic Analysis
– Incomplete family records
– Small number of progeny
– Uncontrolled environment
Despite these obstacles, many human
genetic traits have been described.

Pedigree Conventions
Pedigrees are
diagrams that show
the relationships
among the
members of a
family.

Inheritance of a Dominant Trait
 Every individual who carries
the dominant allele
manifests the trait.
 Every affected individual is
expected to have at least
one affected parent.
 If a dominant trait is
associated with reduced
viability or fertility, most
people who show the trait
are heterozygous, and half
their children should inherit
the condition.
© John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
Inheritance of a Recessive Trait
 Recessive traits may
occur in individuals
whose parents are not
affected.
