- Non-Mendelian genetics does not follow Mendel's laws of inheritance
- Examples include codominance, incomplete dominance, multiple alleles, and polygenic traits
- Codominance shows both alleles contributing to the phenotype, like checkered chickens
- In incomplete dominance, alleles blend together to create a mixed phenotype
- Multiple alleles and polygenic traits involve genes with more than two alleles and multiple genes controlling a trait, like blood types and skin color
Understanding these principles is essential for advancements in genetics and the treatment of genetic disorders. The Non Mendelian Genetics PDF, PPT, notes, and examples provide a comprehensive overview of the various inheritance patterns and their impact on phenotype expression.
