Introduction to Non-Mendelian Genetics


Non-Mendelian inheritance is a type of inheritance wherein the patterns of phenotypes
does not coincide with those that was presented in the Mendelian Laws of inheritance. It also describes
the inheritance of traits linked to a single gene in the chromosomes.

Terms to Remember:
QQ Incomplete dominance -pattern of heredity in which one allele is not completely dominant
over another
UU
AA Codominance -pattern of heredity in which both alleles are simultaneously
expressed in the heterozygote
RR Multiple alleles -a gene that is controlled by more than two alleles
TT
Pleiotropy -when one gene affects multiple characteristics
EE
Lethal allele -allele that results in the death of an individual
RR
Polygenic trait -traits that are controlled by multiple genes

Example of Sex-Linked Traits


 Hypertrichosis
Sex-linked trait is also carried by genes in the males’ Y chromosome. Such trait associated in the Y-
chromosomes are called holandric traits. One typical example of holandric trait is Hypertrichosis, which
refers to a condition characterized by an atypical growth of too much hair. It may be localized, i.e. the hair
growth over a certain body part.

Sex-Influenced Trait
- Trait that are carried by the autosomes and
not the sex chromosomes.

- Not exclusive to male humans alone.

QQ the recessive gene and the nob-bald (B), the
dominant gene.

AA - The recessive allele for baldness (b)
RR behaves like a dominant.

TT - The baldness trait can be inherited from

Sex-Limited Trait
- Sex-limited traits are phenotypically expressed to one sex and not expressed to another sex regardless of
its dominance.

Lesson Rewind:

 The Law of Incomplete Dominance states that in a heterozygous alleles, one allele is
not complete dominant over the other allele resulting in the blending of
characteristics.
 The Law of Codominance states that in a pair of allele involving two dominant traits,
QQ both of the dominant trait partly appears to the offspring.
UU  Multiple Alleles refers to traits controlled by three or more alleles.
AA  Sex-linked traits are traits that are found and controlled by genes in the sex
RR chromosomes.
 Sex-influenced traits are trait that are phenotypically expressed due to the influence
TT of a particular sex.
EE  Sex-limited traits are phenotypically expressed to one sex and not expressed to
RR another sex regardless of its dominance.
