Father of Modern Genetics
• Austrian monk, high school teacher, and part-time garden keeper
• First to propose biological inheritance of traits
• Work not recognized until after his death
Gregor Mendel
![Page 3: Mendelian Genetics. Father of Modern Genetics Austrian monk, high school teacher, and part-time garden keeper First to propose biological inheritance](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e4b5503460f94b3ff4b/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Why pea plants?
• It’s what he had• They grow fast• Pea plants are true
breeding• Gregor noticed that one
stock of seed would produce only tall plants and another only short plants

Traits…
• Specific characteristics that vary from one individual to the next– Hair color– Eye color– Seed color– Flower color
![Page 5: Mendelian Genetics. Father of Modern Genetics Austrian monk, high school teacher, and part-time garden keeper First to propose biological inheritance](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e4b5503460f94b3ff4b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
P generation
Cross-pollination
Next, Mendel wanted to find out if the white alleles had disappeared, or were they still present in the F1 generation.
Mendel’s Experiment
![Page 6: Mendelian Genetics. Father of Modern Genetics Austrian monk, high school teacher, and part-time garden keeper First to propose biological inheritance](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e4b5503460f94b3ff4b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Vocabulary…
• P generation: parental• F1: “first son” – the offspring of the P
generation• F2: “second son” – the offspring of the F1 cross• Phenotype: the physical characteristics, what
the trait “looks” like• Hybrid: cross between parents with different
versions of the trait.

• Mendel crossed the F1 generation with itself
• He found that the white flower trait reappeared in some of the F2 generation

Perplexed?
• Conclusion One: inheritance is due to factors that are passed from one generation to the next– Today, we call those factors GENES– Allele: different forms of a gene (like pink vs white
for flower color)
• Conclusion Two: some alleles are dominant and others are recessive
![Page 9: Mendelian Genetics. Father of Modern Genetics Austrian monk, high school teacher, and part-time garden keeper First to propose biological inheritance](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649e4b5503460f94b3ff4b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
How did the white trait “reappear”?
• He proposed this was due to segregation of alleles during formation of gametes.
What are these called?!
What are these called? What process made them?

• Homozygous: two copies of the same allele– Dominant: AA– Recessive: aa– TRUEBREEDING
• Heterozygous: different alleles (Aa)

Practice: Cats
1. What trait is represented by “T” and “t”?2. “NN” = phenotype or genotype?3. Long hair = phenotype or genotype?4. A homozygous tabby cat would have what
genotype?5. A cat that is “nn” would have what
phenotype?

Applying and practicing your vocab
• Crazy Traits• Exit Slip
• Vocab quiz on Wednesday

Probability
• Mendel categorized and counted the many offspring of each of his experiments.
• He noticed that each time he repeated a particular cross he obtained similar results.
For example:Every time he crossed two
plants that were heterozygous for stem height (Tt), about ¾ of the offspring were tall and ¼ were short.

Probability and Punnett Squares
• Punnett squares are used as a tool to predict this probability
• Monohybrid crosses can be performed to determine probability of phenotype for one particular trait
