      • In this chapter, we will consider the pattern of inheritance that occurs when different genes are situated on the same chromosome.
      • In addition, we will briefly explore how the data from genetic crosses are used to construct a genetic map—a diagram that describes the order of genes along a chromosome.

       

      Intended Learning Outcomes

      1. Analyze data from a genetic cross and by observing the frequency of the offspring phenotypes be able to explain whether the genes are linked or unlinked
      2. Draw a genetic map indicating the map distance between the genes and then determining whether any interference is occurring between the genes.

    Tenth Week: POPULATION genetics

    • Lecture outline:

      • The genetic variation that occurs in populations
      • The reasons why the genetic composition of populations may change over the course of several generations.

      Intended Learning Outcomes

      1. Use the Hardy-Weinberg equation to calculate expected number of carriers.
      2. Analyze populations for allele frequencies and genotype frequencies
      3. Discuss the assumptions of the Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium for predicting population genotype frequencies from allele frequencies

    Eleventh Week: QUANTITATIVE genetics

    • Lecture outline : 

      In this chapter, we examine how genes and the environment contribute to the phenotypic expression of complex or quantitative traits.
      We will begin with an examination of quantitative traits and how to analyze them using statistical techniques.
      We then look at the inheritance of polygenic traits and at quantitative trait loci—locations on chromosomes containing genes that affect the outcome of quantitative traits.
      Advances in genetic mapping strategies have enabled researchers to identify these genes.
      Last, we look at heritability and consider various ways of calculating and modifying the genetic variation that affects phenotype.
    • Intended Learning Outcomes
      1. Understand the inheritance of quantitative traits of importance in agriculture
      2. Analyze genetic data 
      3. Estimate heritability, and the component of genetic variance

    Twelfth week :  RECOMBINANT  DNA TECHNOLOGY
    • Lecture outline :
      In this chapter, we will focus primarily on the use of recombinant DNA technology as a way to further our understanding of gene structure and function.
      We will look at the materials and molecular techniques used in gene cloning, and explore polymerase chain reaction (PCR), which can make many copies of DNA from a defined region.
      We will then explore techniques for identifying specific genes or gene products, as well as methods for detecting the binding of proteins to DNA or RNA sequences.
      Finally, we will examine how scientists analyze and alter DNA sequences through the techniques of DNA sequencing and site-directed mutagenesis (a procedure that allows researchers to make mutations within a cloned segment of DNA).

    • Intended learning outcomes

      1. Recognize the types and function of restriction enzyme
      2. To understand the steps involved in using recombinant DNA technology to clone important protein.
      3. Understand the steps of PCR
      4. Explain Western blotting , Northern blotting and Southern blotting and their applications
