The Origin of Genetics
• Heredity- the passing of characteristics from parents to offspring
• Genetics- the branch of Biology that focuses on heredity
• Cross- combining traits from two parents by breeding (sexual reproduction)

The Origin of Genetics
• Gregor Mendel – Austrian monk
– Studied theology, science and mathematics
– Noticed patterns in the pea plants he was growing
– Mendel crossed pea plants and studied the genetic outcomes
– Was the first to develop rules that accurately predict patterns of heredity
– Father of genetics

The Origin of Genetics
Monohybrid cross- a cross that involved one pair of contrasting traits
Ex. Crossing a white flower with a purple flower.
![Page 5: Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares - Biologythestudyoflivingthings.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/4/4/...Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares Origin of Genetics Steps of a Monohybrid cross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042521/5f77a74488bcaa22f056392d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Steps of a Monohybrid cross
1. Ensure each variety is true-breeding for a particular characteristic
Ex. A true-breeding purple flower will produce only purple flowers
• These are the 1st two individuals crossed
- P generation (parental generation)
![Page 6: Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares - Biologythestudyoflivingthings.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/4/4/...Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares Origin of Genetics Steps of a Monohybrid cross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042521/5f77a74488bcaa22f056392d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Steps of a Monohybrid Cross
2. Cross-pollinate two P-generation plants
Ex. A true breeding purple flower crossed with a true-breeding white flower
• The offspring are called F1 generation (filial generation)
![Page 7: Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares - Biologythestudyoflivingthings.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/4/4/...Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares Origin of Genetics Steps of a Monohybrid cross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042521/5f77a74488bcaa22f056392d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Steps of a Monohybrid Cross
3. Self-pollinate the F1 generation to create the F2
generation (second filial generation)
– This creates a 3:1 ratio
True breeding P generation F1 generation F2 generation

Terminology
• Alleles- alternative versions of genes
– The gene for hair color can have multiple alleles (blonde hair allele, brown hair allele, etc)
• Dominant- the expressed (visible) trait
• Recessive- the trait that is not expressed or observable
![Page 9: Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares - Biologythestudyoflivingthings.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/4/4/...Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares Origin of Genetics Steps of a Monohybrid cross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042521/5f77a74488bcaa22f056392d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Terminology
• Homozygous- when two alleles of a particular gene are the same
– (PP), (pp), (RR), (rr), (VV), (vv), etc
• Heterozygous- when two alleles of a particular gene are different
– Only the dominant allele is expressed while the recessive is present, but not expressed
– (Pp), (Rr), (Vv), etc
![Page 10: Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares - Biologythestudyoflivingthings.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/4/4/...Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares Origin of Genetics Steps of a Monohybrid cross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042521/5f77a74488bcaa22f056392d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Terminology
• Genotype- the set of alleles an individual has for a trait
– think “genes” and “letters”
– (Rr), (RR) or (rr)
– (Vv), (VV) or (vv)
• Phenotype- the physical appearance of a trait
– Think “face” and “colors”
– White, purple, red, blonde, freckles, blue eyes, etc

Practice
(assume that P is purple and p is white)
(Pp):
What is the genotype?
What is the phenotype?
Is it homozygous or heterozygous?

Punnett Squares
• Punnett square- is a diagram that predicts the outcome of a genetic cross by considering all possible combinations
![Page 15: Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares - Biologythestudyoflivingthings.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/4/4/...Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares Origin of Genetics Steps of a Monohybrid cross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042521/5f77a74488bcaa22f056392d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Punnet Squares • Ex. Having freckles (F) is dominant to not
having freckles (f). Parent 1 is heterozygous for freckles and Parent 2 is also heterozygous

Determining Unknown Genotypes
• When a phenotype is dominant but the genotype is not known, a test cross is performed.
– Cross the unknown genotype with a homozygous recessive individual
![Page 19: Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares - Biologythestudyoflivingthings.weebly.com/uploads/1/3/4/4/...Mendel Genetics and Punnett Squares Origin of Genetics Steps of a Monohybrid cross](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022042521/5f77a74488bcaa22f056392d/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Determining Unknown Genotypes
What does that mean?
You can physically see that the pea plant is yellow, but you don’t know if they are (YY) or (Yy).
So, you cross the yellow pea plant with a recessive pea plant (yy) that is green.
If the offspring are all yellow the genotype is (YY)
If the offspring are ½ yellow and ½ green the genotype is (Yy)

Determining Unknown Genotypes
• Use the Punnett Square and work backwards!
