7. Major Subdisciplines of Genetics
Transmission Genetics: focuses on the transmission
of genes and chromosomes in individuals from
generation to generation.
Molecular Genetics: focuses on the structure and
function of genes at the molecular level.
Evolutionary genetics: focus on the study of genetic
basis of changes in organism over time
Population Genetics: focuses on heredity in groups of
individuals for traits determined by one or only a few genes.
Quantitative Genetics: focuses on heredity in groups of
individuals for traits determined by many genes simultaneously.

9. Genome
Entirely of an organism’s heredity information
Complete set of instructions for making an organism
All of the hereditary information encoded in an
organism’s DNA.
Master blueprints for all enzymes, cellular structures &
activities
An organism‘s complete set of DNA
All the DNA contained in the cell of an organism
The collection of DNA that comprises an organism
10. Prokaryotic Organism
• Eubacteria and Archaea. Usually unicellular.
• No internal membrane-bound compartments: DNA
floats free in the cytoplasm.
• 1 circular chromosome (plus optional plasmids, which
are also circular)
• reproduction usually asexual
• sexual processes (mixing DNA from 2 individuals)
occur, but with unequal contributions from the 2
partners
• transcription and translation simultaneous
11. Prokaryotic genomes
Most have a single, double-
stranded circular DNA molecule
Usually without introns
Since there is no nucleus, the
DNA floats freely within the cell
Proteins cause the DNA to coil
tightly forming a nucleoid
region
Relatively high gene density
Often indigenous plasmids are
present
12. Eukaryotic Organism
• Plants, animals, fungi, protistas. Often multicellular.
• DNA contained within a membrane-bound nucleus.
• linear chromosomes (usually more than 1)
• careful division of chromosomes in cell division:
mitosis and meiosis
• transcription separated from translation
• sexual reproduction: 2 partners contribute equally to
offspring
• life cycle: alternation of haploid and diploid phases
(i.e. 1 vs. 2 copies of each gene and chromosome)
13. Eukaryotic genomes

15. Chromosome
A DNA – histone
protein thread, usually
associated with RNA,
occurring in the nucleus
of a cell
Chromosomes contain
hundreds of genes
encoded within their
DNA

Chromosome Logical Structure
Locus
Location of a gene/marker on the chromosome.
Allele
One variant form of a gene/marker at a
particular locus.
Locus1
Possible Alleles: A1,A2
Locus2
Possible Alleles: B1,B2,B3
17. Gene
The material that controls which
traits are expressed in an
organism
Genes come in pairs and
offspring inherit one copy of
each gene from each parent
A section of DNA that codes
for a trait
Material of heredity
18. Genes are pieces of DNA that create proteins:
• located on chromosomes
• inherited from parents
• come in dominant & recessive forms (alleles)
• Ex: Flower color
Purple allele (dominant)
White (recessive)
Letters used to abbreviate alleles
• Dominant Allele = Capital letter
• Recessive Allele = Lowercase letter
Gene
21. Ways of looking,
thinking, or being.
Traits that are genetic
are passed down
through the genes
from parents to
offspring
Traits
22. Recessive
A trait that is covered over, or dominated, by
another form of that trait and seems to disappear
Hidden when the other copy of the gene
contains the dominant allele.
A recessive allele shows up only when there is no
dominant allele present
Shown with a lower-case letter (a)
23. Dominant
A trait that covers over, or dominates, another
form of that trait
Trait that always shows up, even when only one
of the two alleles is in the dominant form
Shown by a capital letter (A)
24. HomozygousHomozygous
Both alleles [forms of the gene] are the same
When offspring inherit two dominant genes, (one
dominant gene from each parent) they are said to
be homozygous dominant (AA)
When offspring inherit two recessive genes, (one
recessive gene from each parent) they are said to be
homozygous recessive (aa)
25. Heterozygous
When alleles occur in different forms
When offspring inherit one dominant gene
and one recessive gene, they are said to be
heterozygous (Aa)
Since the dominant gene will be expressed,
they are said to be heterozygous dominant
(Aa)

34. DNA as Genetic MaterialDNA as Genetic Material
DNA encodes all the information in the cell
The composition of the DNA is the same in all cells within an
organism
• Variation among different cells is achieved by reading the DNA
differently
DNA contains four bases that encode all the information to
make an organism’s life
35. RIBO NUCLEIC ACIDRIBO NUCLEIC ACID
A polymer composed of nucleotides that contain
the sugar ribose and one of the four bases cytosine,
adenine, guanine and uracile
Polynucleotide containing ribose sugar and uracile
instead of thymine
Primary agent for transferring information from
the genome to the protein synthetic machinery
36. Types of RNATypes of RNA
Three types of RNA:
a) messenger RNA (mRNA)
b) transfer RNA (tRNA)
c) ribosome RNA (rRNA)
Remember:
All produced in the nucleus
37. Codon
There are 20 different
possible amino acids to
make from different
codons
Amino acids:
the building of protein
3 possible stop codon
1 start codon
TAC on DNA
AUG on RNA
38. Gene ExpressionGene Expression
Production of proteins requires two steps:
Transcription involves an enzyme (RNA polymerase) making an
RNA copy of part of one DNA strand.
There are four main classes of RNA:
i. Messenger RNAs (mRNA), which specify the amino acid sequence of a
protein by using codons of the genetic code.
ii. Transfer RNAs (tRNA).
iii. Ribosomal RNAs (rRNA).
Translation converts the information in mRNA into the amino
acid sequence of a protein using ribosomes, large complexes of
rRNAs and proteins.
39. Steps of gene expressionSteps of gene expression
Transcription –
DNA is read to make
a mRNA in the
nucleus of cells
Translation –
Reading the mRNA
to make a protein in
the cytoplasm

bonds.

or more polypeptide chains

role or be water soluble with catalytic activity

Editor's Notes
Why does genetics matter (to the Robertson Centre)? Genetics is a subject with very broad applications in understanding evolution, development, ecology, molecular biology, forensics. One of the main applications of genetics is to understanding variation in human health. e.g. how genes can contribute to disease.

California Cholesterol levels 50-90%
Scandinavia Mortality due to heart disease 50-60%
The number of journal articles that deal with genetic and disease has increases steadily over the past 15 years. This isn’t because we’ve suddenly realised that genetic factors are important in disease, but because of dramatic technical innovations that allow us to gather lots of genetic data quickly and cheaply.
