Chromatin

Protein/DNA complex making the chromosome.

Chromosomes

Molecules of DNA complexed with specific proteins responsible in eukaryotes for storage and transmission of genetic information.

Alleles

The different forms of a gene. Y and y are different alleles of the gene that determines seed color. Alleles occupy the same locus, or position, on chromosomes.

Autosomal

A locus on any chromosome but a sex chromosome. Not sex-linked.

 

Co-dominant alleles

Two different alleles at a locus are responsible for different phenotypes, and both alleles affect the phenotype of the heterozygote.

Complete linkage.

Complete linkage describes the inheritance patterns for 2 genes on the same chromosome when the observed frequency for crossover between the loci is zero.

Dioecious

Organisms produce only one type of gamete; i.e. humans

Dominant trait.

A trait expressed preferentially over another trait.

Epistasis.

One gene masks the expression of a different gene for a different trait.

F1 generation

Offspring of a cross between true breeding plants, homozygous for the trait of interest

F2 generation

Offspring of a cross involving the F1 generation.

Genotype

The genetic constitution of an organism with respect to a trait. For a single trait on an autosome, an individual can be homozygous for the dominant trait, heterozygous, or homozygous for the recessive trait. Yellow seeds are dominant, but yellow seeded plants could have a genotype of either YY or Yy.

 

Hemizygous

If there is only one copy of a gene for a particular trait In a diploid organism, the organism is hemizygous for the trait, and will display a recessive phenotype. X-linked genes in fly or human males are hemizygous.

 

Heterozygous

Differing alleles for a trait in an individual, such as ‘Yy’.

 

Homologous chromosomes

The pair of chromosomes in a diploid individual that have the same overall genetic content. One member of each homologous pair of chromosomes in inherited from each parent.

 

Homozygous

Both alleles for a trait are the same in an individual. They can be homozygous dominant (YY), or homozygous recessive (yy).

 

Hybrid

Heterozygous, usually referring to the offspring of two true-breeding (homozygous) individuals differing in the traits of interest.

 

Incomplete dominance

Intermediate phenotype in F1, parental phenotypes reappear in F2. The flowers of the snapdragon plant can be red, pink, or white. Color is determined at a single locus. The genotype ‘RR’ results in red flowers and ‘rr’ results in white flowers. The heterozygote genotype of  ‘Rr’ results in pink flowers. When the heterozygote has a different, intermediate phenotype compared to the homozygous dominant or homozygous recessive individuals, this is said to be incomplete dominance.

 

 

Lethal alleles.

Mutated genes that are capable of causing death.

Linkage.

Genes that are inherited together on the same chromosome. Three inheritance patterns are possible: non-linkage, Partial linkage, and complete linkage.

 

Mendel’s law of Independent Assortment of alleles.

Alleles of different genes are assorted independently of one another during the formation of gametes.

 

Mendel’s law of segregation

Alleles segregate from one another during the formation of gametes.

 

Monoecious

Organisms produce both male and female gametes; i.e. garden pea.

 

Monohybrid cross.

Cross involving parents differing in only one trait.

 

Mutation

Change in the DNA sequence of a gene to some new, heritable form. Generally, but now always a recessive allele.

 

Non-linkage.

Non-linkage describes the inheritance patterns for 2 genes on the same chromosome, when the expected frequency for crossover between the loci is at least one. The observed inheritance patters for non-linked genes on the same chromosome is the same as for 2 genes on different chromosomes.

 

Partial linkage.

Partial linkage describes one of the inheritance patterns for 2 genes on the same chromosome, when the expected frequency for crossover between the loci is greater than zero but less than one. From partial linkage analysis we can learn about the order and spacing of genes on the same chromosome.

 

Phenotype

The physical appearance of an organism with respect to a trait, i.e. yellow (Y) or green (y) seeds in garden peas. The dominant trait is normally represented with a capital letter, and the recessive trait with the same lower case letter.

 

Pleiotropy.

A single gene determines more than one phenotype for an organism.

 

Recessive trait.

The opposite of dominant. A trait that is preferentially masked.

 

Reciprocal cross

Using male and female gametes for two different traits, alternating the source of gametes.

 

Sex chromosomes

Sex determination is based on sex chromosomes

 

Sex-linked.

A gene coded on a sex chromosome, such as the X-chromosome linked genes of flies and man.

 

Test cross

Generally a cross involving a homozygous recessive individual. When a single trait is being studies, a test cross is a cross between an individual with the dominant phenotype but of unknown genotype (homozygous or heterozygous) with a homozygous recessive individual. If the unknown is heterozygous, then approximately 50% of the offspring should display the recessive phenotype.

 

True-breeding

Homozygous for the true-breeding trait.

 

Wild-type allele

The non-mutant form of a gene, encoding the normal genetic function. Generally, but not always a dominant allele.

Biogenetics Definition:

Definition: The study of the patterns of inheritance of specific traits.

Immunogenetics
Definition: A sub-field of genetics that uses both genetic and immunological analyses to study the genetics behind antibody formation and the immune response.

Molecular genetics  

Definition: The study of the flow and regulation of genetic information between DNA, RNA, and protein molecules.

Phylogenetics
Definition: The scientific study of the relationships between the many different kinds of life on Earth; includes methods of collecting and analyzing data and interpreting the results.

Gene - A hereditary unit that, in the classical sense, occupies a specific position (locus) within the genome or chromosome; a unit that has one or more specific effects upon the appearance (phenotype) of the organism.

Genotype - The genetic constitution of an organism.

Locus (plural = loci) - The position that a gene occupies in a chromosome. Normally, that position does not change.

Phenotype - The appearance of an organism, produced by the genotype in conjunction with the environment.

Additive genetic effects

When the combined effects of alleles at different loci are equal to the sum of their individual effects.

Autosome

A chromosome not involved in sex determination. The diploid human genome consists of a total of 46 chromosomes: 22 pairs of autosomes, and 1 pair of sex chromosomes (the X and Y chromosomes).

 

Carrier

An individual who possesses an unexpressed, recessive trait.

 

Chromosomal deletion

The loss of part of a chromosome's DNA.

 

Chromosomal inversion

Chromosome segments that have been turned 180 degrees. The gene sequence for the segment is reversed with respect to the rest of the chromosome.

 

Chromosome

The self-replicating genetic structure of cells containing the cellular DNA that bears in its nucleotide sequence the linear array of genes. In prokaryotes, chromosomal DNA is circular, and the entire genome is carried on one chromosome. Eukaryotic genomes consist of a number of chromosomes whose DNA is associated with different kinds of proteins.

 

Cloning

Using specialized DNA technology to produce multiple, exact copies of a single gene or other segment of DNA to obtain enough material for further study. This process, used by researchers in the Human Genome Project, is referred to as cloning DNA.  The resulting cloned (copied) collections of DNA molecules are called clone libraries. A second type of cloning exploits the natural process of cell division to make many copies of an entire cell. The genetic makeup of these cloned cells, called a cell line, is identical to the original cell. A third type of cloning produces complete, genetically identical animals such as the famous Scottish sheep, Dolly. 

Codominance

Situation in which two different alleles for a genetic trait are both expressed.

Crossing over

The breaking during meiosis of one maternal and one paternal chromosome, the exchange of corresponding sections of DNA, and the rejoining of the chromosomes. This process can result in an exchange of alleles between chromosomes.

 

Deletion

A loss of part of the DNA from a chromosome; can lead to a disease or abnormality.

 

Dominant

An allele that is almost always expressed, even if only one copy is present

 

Epistasis

One gene interferes with or prevents the expression of another gene located at a different locus.

 

Haploid

A single set of chromosomes (half the full set of genetic material) present in the egg and sperm cells of animals and in the egg and pollen cells of plants. Human beings have 23 chromosomes in their reproductive cells.
