The phenotypic consequences of a deletion depend on which genes are located in the deleted region. If the deletion includes the centromere,

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology
  1. the chromosome will segregate in meiosis or mitosis and breakdown causing loss of chromosome
  2. break a gene into two parts, with one part moving to a new location and destroying the function of that gene
  3. the chromosome will not segregate in meiosis or mitosis and will usually be lost
  4. have neither lost nor gained any genetic material; just the DNA sequence has been altered

Trait is encoded by  genes that are expressed in only one sex . In domestic chickens, display a feather pattern in male and female

Genotype                        Male phenotype           Female phenotype

HH                             hen feathering                      hen feathering

Hh                         hen feathering                            hen feathering

hh             cock feathering (plumage pattern )         hen feathering

If cross between Hh and Hh. what is probability of their progeny with cock feathering

In goats, a beard is produced by an autosomal allele that is dominant in males and recessive in females. We’ll use the symbol Bb for the beard allele and B for the beardless allele. Another independently assorting autosomal allele that produces a black coat (W) is dominant over the allele for white coat (w). A cross allowed between BBbWw (male) X BBbWw (female). What is proportional of female progeny will beard with black coat?
