  2. Boveri–Sutton chromosome theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boveri–Sutton_chromosome...

    Walter Sutton (left) and Theodor Boveri (right) independently developed different parts of the chromosome theory of inheritance in 1902.. The Boveri–Sutton chromosome theory (also known as the chromosome theory of inheritance or the Sutton–Boveri theory) is a fundamental unifying theory of genetics which identifies chromosomes as the carriers of genetic material.

  3. Mendelian inheritance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mendelian_inheritance

    The Law of Independent Assortment proposes alleles for separate traits are passed independently of one another. [38] [35] That is, the biological selection of an allele for one trait has nothing to do with the selection of an allele for any other trait. Mendel found support for this law in his dihybrid cross experiments.

  4. Chromosome segregation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_segregation

    Following recombination, chromosome segregation occurs as indicated by the stages metaphase I and anaphase I in the meiosis diagram. Different pairs of chromosomes segregate independently of each other, a process termed “independent assortment of non-homologous chromosomes”. This process results in each gamete usually containing a mixture ...

    According to independent assortment, 3 homologous pairs create 8 possible combinations, all equally likely to be fertilized. The equation to determine the number of possible combinations given # of homologous pairs = 2x ( x = # of homologous pairs)

  7. Dihybrid cross - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihybrid_cross

    The law of independent assortment states that traits controlled by different genes are going to be inherited independently of each other. [3] Mendel was able to determine this law out because in his crosses he was able to get all four possible phenotypes. The law of dominance states that if one dominant allele is inherited then the dominant ...

  8. Hardy–Weinberg principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardy–Weinberg_principle

    In population genetics, the Hardy–Weinberg principle, also known as the Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, model, theorem, or law, states that allele and genotype frequencies in a population will remain constant from generation to generation in the absence of other evolutionary influences.

  9. Non-Mendelian inheritance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-Mendelian_inheritance

    Mirabilis jalapa Carl Correns. Non-Mendelian inheritance is any pattern in which traits do not segregate in accordance with Mendel's laws.These laws describe the inheritance of traits linked to single genes on chromosomes in the nucleus.
