Some disorders result when a mutation causes the product of a single gene to be altered or missing. These disorders are inherited in simple patterns similar to or identical with those described by Mendel for certain discrete characteristics in garden peas. Therefore, it’s also called Mendelian diseases

Cells reproduce via a cell cycle Meiosis is the key to sexual reproduction and Mendel’s rules Sex determination, sex linkage and chromosome nondisjunction supported the chromosome theory

一、历史回顾 140年前, Mendel在捷克莫勒温镇一个修道院里沉醉于豌豆杂交实验,也许根本就没有想到,他提出的遗传因子在半个世纪后被 Morgan定义为基因。1944 Avery年证明了基因的物质基础是DNA50年代 WatsonCrick初和又揭示了DNA的分子结构70年代初,DNA已可在体外被随意拼接并转回到细菌体内遗传和表达

single-gene disorder or monogenic disorder Some disorders result when a mutation causes the product of a single gene to be altered or missing. These disorders are inherited in simple patterns similar to or identical with those described by Mendel for certain discrete characteristics in garden peas. Therefore it's also called mendelian diseases

1、性状 遗传学中把生物体所表现出来的形态特征和 生理生化特征统称为性状( character)。这里所说的 性状是统称,也可以说是一个抽象概念,是指生 物体的总的表现型特征
