= normal male

= carrier male (one bad allele + one good allele)

= affected male (has disease / disorder)

= normal female

or

= carrier female (one bad allele + one good allele)

= affected female (has disease / disorder)

Reading a Pedigree:

Are there carriers? IF YES – it’s recessive IF NO – it’s dominant

Reading a Pedigree:

If it’s recessive, are there any male carrier? IF YES – it’s autosomal

IF NO – it’s X-linked

Reading a Pedigree:

If it’s dominant, analyze an affected son.

• ColorblindnessColorblindness – carried on – carried on X-chromosomeX-chromosome

• HemophiliaHemophilia – impaired blood – impaired blood clottingclotting

• CarriersCarriers – – people who people who carry an allele for a carry an allele for a disorderdisorder, but do not have the disorder , but do not have the disorder (Heterozygous)(Heterozygous)

• Genetic disordersGenetic disorders – – any disease / disorder that any disease / disorder that has a genetic basishas a genetic basis

• PolygenicPolygenic – – characteristics that are influenced by characteristics that are influenced by several genesseveral genes– ExamplesExamples::

• Complex charactersComplex characters - - characteristics characteristics that are that are influenced strongly by influenced strongly by both environment and genesboth environment and genes

• Sun = Sun = darker skindarker skin

• Height = several genes but also Height = several genes but also nutrition and diseasenutrition and disease

• Multiple AllelesMultiple Alleles – genes that have – genes that have three three or more allelesor more alleles (usually 2) (usually 2)– ExampleExample: Blood Type : Blood Type – What are the blood types?What are the blood types?

• Colorblindness Colorblindness • HemophiliaHemophilia

X-linked Dominant

• If mother affected equal chance of sons / daughters affected

• If father affected All daughters will have, sons ok

• No carriers possible

X-Linked Recessive• If mother carrier

50% chance son will be affected, no daughters will have (females can be carriers)

• If father affected Sons will be ok, All daughters are carriers

Autosomal Dominant

• Affected individual 50 / 50 chance of producing affected children

• No carriers possible

Autosomal Recessive

• Occurs if both parents are carriers (only 25% of the time)

• Carriers possible

• Single-Allele TraitsSingle-Allele Traits – – traits caused by one traits caused by one dominant alleledominant allele

• Huntington’s DiseaseHuntington’s Disease – –

– caused by one dominant allele. Onset is 30-40 so caused by one dominant allele. Onset is 30-40 so parents have children before they realize they parents have children before they realize they have ithave it
