Identify inheritance A & BGive example of each and peculiarity of each

• A

• A

6.

A

• DIGENIC INHERITANCE.• Digenic inheritance explains the occurrence of retinitis

pigmentosa (RP) in children of parents who each carry a different RP-associated gene. Both parents have normal vision, as would be expected, but the offspring who were double heterozygotes developed RP.

• Digenic pedigrees exhibit characteristics of both autosomal dominant (vertical transmission) and autosomal recessive inheritance (1 in 4 recurrence risk). A couple in which the two partners are carriers for two different genes may have affected children. Any child, however, might transmit both mutations to an offspring, as in dominant inheritance.

6.

B

• Pseudodominant inheritance refers to the observation of apparent dominant (parent to child) transmission of a known autosomal recessive disorder

• This occurs when a homozygous affected individual has a partner who is a heterozygous carrier, and it is most likely to occur for relatively common traits, such as sickle cell anemia or congenital deafness due to connexin26 gene mutation.
