4. Introduction; what are the
Mendel´s laws?
•We could define Mendel´s
laws as the basic laws that
talks about the inheritance
of biological features that
every human being has.
•They were created by
Gregor Johann Mendel in
1865. Mendel created two
laws: The law of
Segregation, the law of
Independent Assortment.

5. Who was Gregor Mendel?
• Gregor Johann Mendel was a really famous scientist
that discovered the basic laws of inheritance. They
were called Mendel´s laws. He was born on July
20th of 1822 in Austria and he died on January 6th
1884. He was a Catholic Augustinian.
• An Austrian scientist =research in a Czechoslovakia
monastery.
• Established the basis of modern genetic science.
• Objective = understand how physical traits are
passed from a parent to its offspring.

6. Continue
• He had previously studied science and mathematics
(including Statistics) at the University of Vienna.
Mendel’s knowledge of statistics later proved
valuable in his research on Heredity – the
transmission of characteristics from Parent to
Offspring.
• The theory of inheritance proposed by Mendel can
account for presence of differences among
members of a population generation after
generation.
• Mendel's work was unrecognized until 1990.

7. Mendel's Garden Peas, Pisum sativum
• Mendel did a statistical study (he had a mathematical
background).
• He prepared his experiments carefully and conducted
preliminary studies.
• He chose the garden pea, Pisum sativum, because peas
were easy to cultivate, had a short generation time, and
could be cross-pollinated.
• From many varieties, Mendel chose 22 true-breading
varieties for his experiments.
• True-breeding varieties had all offspring like the
parents and like each other.

8. Mendel's Garden Peas, Pisum sativum
• Mendel studied seven (7) Traits or Characteristics.
Each characteristic occurred in Two Contrasting
Traits:
• Flower Color – purple or white
• Flower Position along Stem – axial or terminal
• Seed or Pea Color – yellow or green
• Seed Texture or Shape – round (smooth) or wrinkled
• Pod Color – green or yellow
• Pod Appearance or Shape – inflated or constricted
• Plant Height – long or short stems

10. Continue
• Mendel traced inheritance of individual traits and
kept careful records of numbers.
• He used his knowledge of Statistics to analyze his
observations of the Seven Characteristics.

11. Continue
• Mendel was able to document the traits of each
generation’s parents by carefully controlling how the
pea plants were Pollinated.
• Pollination occurs when pollen grains produced in the
Male Reproductive parts of a flower, the Anthers, are
transferred to the Female Reproductive part of the
flower, the Stigma.
• Self-Pollination occurs when pollen is transferred from
the Anthers of a flower to the Stigma of either the same
flower or a flower on the same plant.
• Cross-Pollination involves flowers of Two Separate
Plants.
• Pea Plants normally reproduce by Self-Pollination.

12. Concepts about
• Dominant are those characters which shows its self
in first generation or in offspring in expressive from
OR ability to mask the expression of a recessive
allele (Capital)
• Recessive characters are those characters which do
not shows or express its self in first generation or in
offspring at any stage OR masked by a dominant
allele.
• Homozygous- 2 identical alleles (TT, tt)
• Heterozygous- 2 different alleles (Tt)

13. Concepts about
• Genotype- genes of an organism = alleles received
during fertilization.
• Phenotype = the physical appearance of a trait in an
organism . e.g blue eyes, yellow flower.
• Genes – portions of DNA that determine traits.
• Alleles – Genetic factors that controls a trait.

14. Mendel’s Laws

15. Mono Hybride cross
• A monohybrid cross is one that looks at only one
trait (let’s look at plant height – tall or short)

16. Dihybride Cross or 2nd Law
• “Genes for different traits can segregate
independently during the formation of gametes”
• “The Law of Independent Assortment, said that
separate genes for separate traits are passed
independently of one another from parents to
offspring”

18. Summary Of Mendel’s Laws

19. Mendel's Results and Conclusions
• Whenever Mendel crossed strains, one of P1Traits
failed to appear in the F1 plants. In every case, that
trait reappeared in a ratio of 3:1 in the F2
generation.
• He found that the F1 plants resembled only One of
the parents.
• Characteristic of the other parent reappeared in
about 1/4 of F2 plants; 3/4 of offspring resembled
the F1 plants.

20. As Viewed By Modern Genetics
• Most of Mendel’s findings agree with what now know about
Molecular Genetics - the Study of the Structure and Function
of Chromosomes and Genes.
• A Gene is a segment of DNA on a Chromosome that controls
a particular Hereditary Trait. Because Chromosomes occur in
Pairs, Genes Also occur in Pairs.
• Each of several Alternative forms of a Gene is called an
Allele. Mendel’s Factors are now called alleles.
• Letters are used to represent Alleles:
• Capital Letters refer to a Dominant ( A ) Allele that masks or
hides expression of a recessive allele.
• Lower Case ( a )refer to a Recessive Allele its expression is
masked by a dominant allele.
