5-Dihybrids Notes

Dihybrid Crosses
A monohybrid cross involves only one
trait. This is what we have been looking
at so far. Ex. Only dimples, OR only
tongue rolling ability.
A dihybrid cross involves two traits. Also
known as two-factor cross.
Ex. dimples AND tongue rolling ability.
• Dihybrid crosses illustrate Mendel’s Principle
of Independent Assortment.
• The Principle of Independent Assortment
states that genes for different traits segregate
independently during the formation of
gametes.
• New combinations of gametes are formed,
creating genetic variety.
Meiosis creates genetic variety in
3 ways******
1. Crossing over
2. Independent assortment
3. creating gametes for fertilization –
ultimately combining the genes of 2
organisms
Example
Ex. Cross a male heterozygous for dimples
AND tongue rolling ability with a female
of the same genotype.
Presence of dimples:
D= dimples
d= no dimples
Tongue Rolling ability:
A =able to roll a= not able
STEP 1: WRITE EQUATION
father DdAa x mother DdAa
STEP 2: GENERATE GAMETES
STEP 2: GENERATE GAMETES using the FOIL
method for each parent. Make sure you get
one allele for each trait in your gamete (D
and A). You should always have 4 gametes,
even if they repeat.
FOIL = First, Outside, Inside, Last = remember
from math?
STEP 2: GENERATE GAMETES
FOIL = First, Outside, Inside, Last
moms gametes for DdAa
First: DA Outside: Da Inside: dA
Last: da
dad’s gametes for DdAa (the same as mom this
case)

***STEP 2 Illustrates independent assortment, as D
allele has the same chance of being in a gamete
with A or a. (DA or Da equally likely).
STEP 3: 16 Box Punnett
STEP 3: DRAW a 16 box Punnett Square. COMPLETE the
Punnett Square as normal. Gametes on the outside,
offspring on the inside. Hint: Make sure you list the
dominant allele first, and the same trait first for every box.
STEP 4: DRAW A TABLE
• LIST the possible phenotypes – there will always be 4
• Assign them each a COLOR. Color the the box on the
genotypes that produce phenotypic
table. Possible Phenotypes

column.

• STEP 5: RECORD the phenotypic frequency as
a ratio. Make sure your numbers add up to
16!!!!

Independent Assortment occurs in meiosis I.
• The genes for different traits are on different
chromosomes.
• Homologous pair for tongue rolling lines up
independently of the homologous pair for
dimples.
• Two different alignments can occur, which
produce different combinations of gametes.

• Exception: Genes on the same
chromosome do not sort independently.
They are linked genes. (Of course they do
not sort independently. They are
physically attached!)
