Patterns of Inheritance

This document discusses various patterns of inheritance including Mendelian inheritance, dominant vs recessive traits, codominance, mitochondrial DNA inheritance, autosomal vs sex linked traits, gene ratios indicating other inheritance modes, and the concept of epistasis where one gene modifies the expression of another. It also covers dihybrid crosses involving heterozygous individuals and Punnett squares used to determine expected genotype and phenotype ratios from genetic crosses.

Gene Ratios indicate other modes of inheritance

Epistasis refers to 
genes that modify 
the expression of 
others. For 
example in 
horses there is a 
gene for a brown 
coat. Another 
epistasis gene 
determines how 
brown eg. pale 
brown or dark 
brown.
