Inferring incomplete penetrance FIGURE 6-21 In this human pedigree of a dominant allele that is not fully penetrant, person Q does not display the phenotype but passed the dominant allele to at least two progeny. Because the allele is not fully penetrant, the other progeny (for example, R) may or may not have inherited the dominant allele.

Analysis of X-Linked Dominant and Recessive Traits Suppose a couple, both phenotypically normal, have two children: one unaffected daughter and one son affected with a genetic disorder. The phenotype ratio is 1:1, making it difficult to determine whether the trait is autosomal or X-linked. With your knowledge of genetics, what are the genotypes of the parents and children in the autosomal case? In the X-linked case?

Is it homozygous or heterozygous? 8. A pea plant exhibits a purple color, but you are unsure of its genotype. With what could you cross this plant to determine its genotype? Show all of your work for the cross. What is this type of cross called? Incomplete dominance: Genes code for the production of specific proteins, many of which are enzymes. Different alleles at a locus code for alternative forms of a protein that differ in structure and when the protein is an enzyme, often have different degrees of catalytic activity. Therefore, a heterozygote genotvpe produces an intermediate phenotype.
Monohybrid Problems llustrating Codominamce 5. Another type of monohybrid inheritance involves the expression of both phenotypes in the heterozy- gous situation. This is called codominance. One well-known example of codominance occurs in the coat color of Shorthorn cattle. Those with reddish-gray roan coats are heterozygous (RR'), and result from a mating between a red (RR) Shorthorn and one that's white (R'R'). Roan cattle don't have roan-colored hairs, as would be expected with incom- plete dominance, but rather appear roan as a result of having both red and white hairs. Thus, the roan col- oration is not a consequence of pigments blending in each hair. Because the R and R' alleles are both fully expressed in the heterozygote, they are codominant. a. If a roan Shorthorn cow is mated with a white bull, what will be the genotypic and phenotypic ratios in the F, generation? genotypic ratio . phenotypic ratio b.
