Punnett square for the agouti gene in mice, demonstrating a recessive lethal allele. [2] Lethal alleles were first discovered by Lucien Cuénot in 1905 while studying the inheritance of coat colour in mice. The agouti gene in mice is largely responsible for determining coat colour. The wild-type allele produces a blend of yellow and black ...
A Punnett square showing a typical test cross. (green pod color is dominant over yellow for pea pods [ 1 ] in contrast to pea seeds, where yellow cotyledon color is dominant over green [ 2 ] ). Punnett squares for each combination of parents' colour vision status giving probabilities of their offsprings' status, each cell having 25% probability ...
Punnett square: If the other parent does not have the recessive genetic disposition, it does not appear in the phenotype of the children, but on the average 50% of them become carriers. A hereditary carrier ( genetic carrier or just carrier ), is a person or other organism that has inherited a recessive allele for a genetic trait or mutation ...
An example of a family pedigree displaying an autosomal recessive trait. A pedigree is a diagram showing the ancestral relationships and transmission of genetic traits over several generations in a family. Square symbols are almost always used to represent males, whilst circles are used for females.
Autosomal dominant A 50/50 chance of inheritance. Sickle-cell disease is inherited in the autosomal recessive pattern. When both parents have sickle-cell trait (carrier), a child has a 25% chance of sickle-cell disease (red icon), 25% do not carry any sickle-cell alleles (blue icon), and 50% have the heterozygous (carrier) condition.

The word pedigree is a corruption of the Anglo-Norman French pé de grue or "crane's foot", either because the typical lines and split lines (each split leading to different offspring of the one parent line) resemble the thin leg and foot of a crane [3] or because such a mark was used to denote succession in pedigree charts.
