A family history of a genetic condition
© 2007 Paul Billiet ODWS
What is a pedigree chart?
 Pedigree charts show a record of the family
of an individual
 They can be used to study the transmission
of a hereditary condition
 They are particularly useful when there are
large families and a good family record over
several generations.
© 2007 Paul Billiet ODWS
Studying human genetics
 You cannot make humans of different
types breed together
 Pedigree charts offer an ethical way of
studying human genetics
 Today genetic engineering has new tools
to offer doctors studying genetic diseases
 A genetic counsellor will still use pedigree
charts to help determine the distribution of
a disease in an affected family
