5.TRIHYBRID CROSS Determine all possible gametes of a cross between the gerbils and their fur color genes where hair shaft color is agouti (B) vs. black (b) which is physically caused by different deposition of melanin in the hair shaft; coat color pattern is solid (P) vs. piebald (p) and the modifier which is wild type (M) vs. modified (m) (affects melanin deposition). A trihybrid cross for all three traits would be BbPpMm x BbPpMm. Practice this in Punnett square.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
