Document Summary
The allele for the manx gene is lethal: progeny that are homozygous with the manx allele die in utero, progeny that are heterozygous with the manx allele are born without a tail. P (a living kitten with a tail) = 1/3. Variations on phenotype seen for a particular genotype. Variable penetrance and expressivity: this combination makes pedigree analysis tougher. Jim moves from nova scotia to montreal the soil is different in the 2 cities differences in soil cause differences in the growth and development of the plant interaction with the environment makes sense since: Investigation of a biological process using mutants: identifies genes and proteins that act in that specific process. Done in labs to analyse a trait. Mutant population is collected after genetic screening is completed. A specific gene might affect the ability of an organism to carry out its regular function. How many genes are affected in each mutant: procedure:
