Phenotype: F0 Smooth, green SSyy or Ssyy ssyy Genotype: Punnet Grid: F1 Phenotypes: No rough peas will be present in the offspring if the unknown parent genotype is SSyy. The presence of rough green peas in the offspring means that the unknown genotype must be Ssyy. The expected ratio in this cross is 3 smooth green : 1 rough green. This is not the same as the outcome. Remember that each reproduction event is chance and the sample size is very small. With a much larger sample size, the outcome would be closer to the expected ratio, simply due to probability. 10.2 Dihybrid Crosses & Gene Linkage 25 http://sciencevideos.wordpress.com

Autosomes and Sex Chromosomes Humans have 23 pairs of chromosomes in diploid somatic cells (n=2). 22 pairs of these are autosomes, which are homologous pairs. One pair is the sex chromosomes. XX gives the female gender, XY gives male. Karyotype of a human male, showing X and Y chromosomes: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karyotype SRY The X chromosome is much larger than the Y. X carries many genes in the non-homologous region which are not present on Y. The presence and expression of the SRY gene on Y leads to male development. Chromosome images from Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Y_chromosome 10.2 Dihybrid Crosses & Gene Linkage 42 http://sciencevideos.wordpress.com

Autosomal Gene Linkage vs Sex-Linked Disorders Sex-linked disorders are carried on the non-homologous regions of the X chromosome. Alleles are expressed whether they are dominant or recessive, as there is no alternate allele carried on the Y chromosome. Gene-related disorders which are sex-linked include red-green colour blindness and hemophilia. Males are more frequently affected by sex-linked disorders. A B SCN5A a b (voltage-gated sodium channel) Linked genes are pairs or groups of genes which are inherited together, carried on the same chromosome. Locus 1 Locus 2 PDCD10 Y X (programmed cell death) SOX2 (transcription factor - promoter region) There are about 2000 genes on X and 86 on Y. Gene linkage is therefore also common on X and Y.

Autosomal Gene Linkage Linked genes are pairs or groups of genes which are inherited together, carried on the same chromosome. SCN5A (voltage-gated sodium channel) The SCN5A, PDCD10 and SOX2 genes are all linked by being on chromosome 3. They are a linkage group, and alleles of each will therefore be inherited together. Independent assortment does not occurbetween linked genes.

Autosomal Gene Linkage Linked genes are pairs or groups of genes which are inherited together, carried on the same chromosome.

Recombination of alleles occurs as a result of crossing-over between non-sister chromatids. Exchange of alleles gives new genotypes of gametes. Key to alleles: P = purple p = white L = long l = short Plants which are heterozygous at both loci are test-crossed. A small number of purple;short and white;long individuals have appeared in the offspring. Explain what has happened. P L Possible gametes: Test individual: p l Heterozygous individual: p l Diploid cell Heterozygous at both loci Chromosomes replicate in Synthesis phase Crossing Over Prophase I Alleles are exchanged Crossing-over occurs occasionally. It is more likely to happen between linked genes which are further apart. 10.2 Dihybrid Crosses & Gene Linkage 59 http://sciencevideos.wordpress.com

Crossing-Over Increases genetic variation through recombination of linked alleles. Synapsis Homologous chromosomes associate Chiasma Formation Neighbouring non-sister chromatids are cut at the same point. A Holliday junction forms as the DNA of the cut sections attach to the open end of the opposite non-sister chromatid. Recombination As a result, alleles are swapped between non-sister chromatids. 10.2 Dihybrid Crosses & Gene Linkage 64 http://sciencevideos.wordpress.com

Crossing-Over Increases genetic variation through recombination of linked alleles. 10.2 Dihybrid Crosses & Gene Linkage 65 http://sciencevideos.wordpress.com

Gene Linkage & Recombination The further apart a pair of alleles are on a chromosome, the more likely it is that crossing over may occur between them - leading to recombination. Knowing this, researchers can map the position of genes on a chromosome based on the frequency of recombination between gene pairs: the further apart they are, the more often they cross over. SCN5A (voltage-gated sodium channel) Crossing-over is more likely to occur between SCN5A and PDCD10 than between PDCD10 and SOX2.
