    1.

    Incomplete Dominance
    ❑ One allele is not completely dominant over
    the other
    ▪ Causing the heterozygote to have a third, different phenotype

    ex
    Blending in flowers
     Homo Dominant = red flowers
     Homo recessive = white flowers
     Heterozygotes = pink flowers
    ’
    2. Codominance
    ❑ Occurs when both alleles are expressed
    equally in the phenotype of a heterozygote
    ex
    Roan fur in Cattle
    Where a cattle can be:
    ➢ Red (RR = all red hairs)
    ➢ White (WW = all white hairs)
    ➢ Roan (RW = red and white hairs
    together)
    ’
    3. Multiple Alleles
    ❑ Sometimes a trait or gene
    have multiple (more than two)
    alleles.
    ex
    ABO blood type in humans
     three alleles: A, B and O
     determinedby the presence of
    two antigens – A and B
    O is a recessive trait
    A and B are codominant
    3. Multiple Alleles
    ex
    ❑ ABO blood type in humans
    ❑ Color variations in rabbits
    ❑ Hair color
    ’
    LET’S TRY

    Step 3: Write the resulting


    genotypes and phenotypes
    ❑ Humans have 46 chromosomes in each cell.

    23 pairs of chromosomes
    o 22 pairs – somatic chromosomes
    o 1 pair – sex chromosomes

    ❑ Sex Chromosomes:
    male = XY
    female = XX
    4. Sex-Linked Trait
    ❑ are inherited through the X chromosome
    ❑ Males have only one X chromosome. Thus, if they
    inherit the affected X, they will have the disorder.
    ❑ Females have two X chromosomes. Which
    means that they can inherit/carry the trait
    without being affected if it acts in a recessive
    manner.
    ❑Color blindness in humans
    GENOTYPE PHENOTYPE
    1. XX Normal female

    Normal female, carrier of the gene

    Color-blind female

    4. XY Normal male

    Color-blind male
    ❑Hemophilia “bleeders disease”
    - a sex-linked recessive trait defined by the absence of
    one or more of the proteins required for blood clotting.
    ❑ Hypertrichosis pinnae auris “Hairy ears”

    - a genetic
    disorder in
    humans that
    causes hairy
    ears.
    5. Sex-Limited Traits
    ❑ are those that are expressed exclusively in one sex.
    ❑ autosomal (not found on X or Y chromosomes)
    ex
    Lactation in Cattle
    ➢both male and female possess
    a gene pair for lactation, but it
    is only expressed in FEMALES
    ➢the gene for lactation (L)
    is dominant over the
    non-lactating gene
    ex

    ❑ Roosters develop large comb, while hens of


    the same breed do not
    ❑ Bright plumage (feathers) of certain male
    birds that does not appear in females of the
    same species.
    ❑ Beards much present among men than in
    women
    6. Sex-Influenced Traits
     are expressed in both sexes but more frequently in
    one sex than the other sex
     also autosomal (not found on X or Y chromosomes)

    ex Pattern Baldness in Humans


    ➢ influenced by sex hormones
    testosterone present in
    both male and female
    ➢ Males have much higher levels
    of testosterone (baldness allele
    behaves like a dominant allele in males
    and recessive in females)
