Q

Vad är en gen?

A
Gene:  heredlary consisting 
of DNA that occupies 
a specific location on a chromosome 
that encodes a specfic function 
product (a protein or RNA molecule) 
- transcribed, regulatory sequence 
regions 

(Struktural gene: Ageneis a sequence ofDNAorRNAwhichcodesfor a molecule that has a function
(RNA emellan såklart)
Regulatory genes: Transkription factors: regulate the expression of other genes - not proteins themselves men påverkar uttrycket)

Q

Vad är en allell?

A

An allele is a variant form of a given gene.[3] Sometimes, different alleles can result in different observable phenotypic traits, such as different pigmentation. - genvariant
- Vi har 2 (mamma/papp), vete har 6
- Allo-plyploids = 3 ansesters
Utveckling: breed mellan arter kan ha lett till pollyplypoid

Q

homozygot / hetrozygot?

A

b) homozygote and heterozygote
Två lika aleller eller två olika aleller

A cell is said to be homozygous for a particular gene when identical alleles of the gene are present on both homologous chromosomes. The cell or organism in question is called a homozygote.

A diploid organism is heterozygous at a gene locus when its cells contain two different alleles of a gene. The cell or organism is called a heterozygote specifically for the allele in question, and therefore, heterozygosity refers to a specific genotype.

Q

quantitative vs qualitative trait

A

A qualitative trait is a trait that fits into discrete categories. This means that you can neatly categorize a trait. For example, if a species of plant had either red leaves or yellow leaves, and nothing in between, this would be a discrete trait. “Yes or no” traits, traits where an organism either has the trait or doesn’t, also fit into this category. Usually, a single gene or small group of genes control qualitative traits.

Quantitative traits occur as a continuous range of variation. This means that these traits occur over a range. To picture this, imagine the length of a lizard’s tail. The length can vary, and does not fit into natural categories. Generally, a larger group of genes control qualitative traits. When multiple genes influence a trait, you can also describe it as a “polygenic trait.”

Quantitativ man mätas med exakta nr: storlek
qualitative: antingen har man det eller inte

Q

Cromosome

A

broad sense heritability

Kromatider kallas de båda identiska delarna av en fördubblad kromosom som under celldelningen bildats då DNA:et i kromosomerna kopierat sig. Kromatiderna sitter i celldelningens första faser ihop med en centromer innan de två kromatiderna förs till var sin sida av cellen i celldelningens anafas.

Q

Fitness

A
  • Fitness, an individual’s
    ability to propagate its genes

Fitness (often denoted {\displaystyle w} w or ω in population genetics models) is the quantitative representation of natural and sexual selection within evolutionary biology. It can be defined either with respect to a genotype or to a phenotype in a given environment

Q

genetic diversity

A

Genetic diversity is the total number of genetic characteristics in the genetic makeup of a species. It is distinguished from genetic variability, which describes the tendency of genetic characteristics to vary

Gen vs utseende
Phenotyp kan bero på gen och miljö

A phenotype (from Greek phainein, meaning ‘to show’, and typos, meaning ‘type’) is the composite of an organism’s observable characteristics or traits, such as its morphology, development, biochemical or physiological properties, behavior, and products of behavior (such as a bird’s nest

Q

heritability

A

Heritability is a statistic used in the fields of breeding and genetics that estimates the degree of variation in a phenotypic trait in a population that is due to genetic variation between individuals in that population.[1] In other words, the concept of heritability can alternately be expressed in the form of the following question: “What is the proportion of the variation in a given trait within a population that is not explained by the environment or random chance?

Q

Domestication

A

Domestication is a sustained multi-generational relationship in which one group of organisms assumes a significant degree of influence over the reproduction and care of another group to secure a more predictable supply of resources from that second group

17
Q

dominant and recessive

A

Dominant syns medans recesive ligger i bakgrunden

Dominance in genetics is a relationship between alleles of one gene, in which the effect on phenotype of one allele masks the contribution of a second allele at the same locus

18
Q

Ärftlighet

A

Hur mycket genotyp påverkar fenotyp

19
Q

Genetic diversety

genetic variant

A

Genetic diversety = antal alleler

genetic variant = calculate hur common en alell är I en population

20
Q

Broad sense heritability

A
Broad sense heritability 's 
the proportion of phenotypic 
variance in a population that is 
attributable to genetic variance 
among individuals
21
Q

Genetic diversity och Genetic variation

A

Genetic diversity : number of alleles within
a population

Genetic variation: Allele frequencies within
and between populations

22
Q

Subpopulation

A

Subpopulation — a geoogrephically isolated group of individuals which can mate and
produce offspring. They are sharing the same gene pool (a complete set of allees
and the sum of all genotypes in the subpopulation)

23
Q

Polymorfism

A

Polymorfism — The occurrence of more than one allele at the same locus with the least
frequent allele occurring more frequently than can be accounted for by mutation alone

24
Q

What causes changes in genetic variation?

A

Migration/ gene flow
Increases variation within populations,
decreases variation among populations

Selection 
 - Homoqenous habitat - decreases variation 
within populations 
 - Heteroqenous habitat(s) 
increases variation within and among 
populations 

Genetic drift
Decreases variation within smal/ populations,
increases variation among populations
(genetic differentiation)

25
Q

Gene drift

A

Genetic drift — loss of genetic variation

26
Q

Founder and bottteneck effects

A

Founder and bottteneck effects — situations
where genetic drift Will have a major effect on
the genetic variation in a population

27
Q

När började vi att faktiskt breed växter

A

iinte så länge sen - 200år sen, vi domesticerade mest utan att va medvetna om generna (1200år sen )

28
Q

Modern plant breeding använder sig av

A
Modern plant breeding - 
uses molecular genetic 
techniques to select (marker- 
assisted selection) 
or in the case of genetic 
modification — gene 
expression may be changed 
of targeted / desirable genes 
or genes may be transfered 
within and across species-
29
Q

Vad är traditional plant breeding`?

A

Ta de med fenotypen man vill ha och fårtsätter i samma stil

steg 1) Crossing of selected
genotypes

steg 2) Selection of progenies
with desirable traits by
phenotypic (field)
evaluation - tillbaka till steg 1

30
Q

Marker-assisted plant breeding

A

steg 1) Crossing of selected
genotypes

steg 2) Selection oi progenies 
with desirable traits 
combining phenotypic 
(field) and genetic 
evaluation - till steg 1

Stoppa in en marker och kolla om den finns sen i offspring (tror jag)

31
Q

Genetic modificatjon in plant breeding

A
Gene modification 
Transforming single genes, e.g 
-Bt-crops (Bacillus thurengiensis — 
insectresistans 
-Roundup-ready-crops — 
(bacteria) herbicide resistance 
-"Golden rice" (narciss+bacteria), 
betacarotene 
-MiEdew resistance in potato 
(wild relative) 

Stoppa in ny gen

Crossing of selected
modified
genotypes/phenotypes

32
Q

När var devanliga cropsen domesticereade?

A

500 domesticated plants of which about 100 is considered important.
Most of them were domesticated for more than 4000 years ago,

33
Q

Hur evolvas crops?

A

Wild plant pop

  • Phenotypic changes (morphological and fysiological)
  • GenetiG changes

Human selection + Natural selection gives

Crops
- Totaly dependent c uman

Human selection + natural selection gives:

New crop and cultivars

34
Q

Vilka är de vanligaste morfologiska changes in the crop mellan wild type?

A

Loss of seed dispersal - seed stannar kvar så lättare att harvest

Larger fruits, grains and tubers

Change in inflorescence structure

appical dominance

shift to perenial to annual

loss of seed dornamcy

self polination

sunkroniserad flowering

adopterade till photoperioden

35
Q

Vad sker vid breeding mot specefika egenskaper

A

loss of genetic diversety

rare gene - specefik typ av gen 5/6 är TF

36
Q

Vad är neutral gene och selected gene

- skillnader

A

bra bild i pp

natural gene - större hål i tratten och släpper igenom fler olika

selected gene - mindre hål - släpper bara igenom de med den gen man vill ha

37
Q

Genes changed as a result of domestication — regulatory genes

A
  • Larger fruits
  • Loss of seed dispersal
  • Change in- inflorescence structure - större ätdelar som - ej är frukt
  • Apical dominance
38
Q

Varför har man på vissa växter odlat bort stop kodon?

A

Inget stopp för att sluta växa - tex större calicoflower

39
Q

Vad är lite dåligt med att få mer nerslimade cultivarer som alla ser lika dana ut

A

Förlorar andra gener som kanske hade varit bra att ha - mindre rötter ges som exempel

40
Q

Vad är top-up vs bottom down?

A

top-down: fenotype till signature of adoptation
(kollar på utseende och går sen ner och kollar vilka gener det är)

down-top: signature of adaption till fenotype
(går från generna och kollar sedan på fenotypen)

Båda görs för att kolla hur det hänger ihop

41
Q

TF

A

Transkriptionsfaktorer är proteiner som på något sätt, direkt eller indirekt, är involverade i transkriptionen av gener.
