1 Quantitative Genetics Chapter Statistics Overview: Distributions Phenotypes on X axis, Frequencies on Y axis Statistics Overview: Mean Measure of central tendency (average) of a group of measurements X = ΣXi n Statistics Overview: Variance Indicates the variability of a group of measurements s = Σ(Xi X) (n 1) Figure. The standard deviation (s) is simply the square root of the variance 1
2 Statistics and Quantitative Traits Mean Changes in F1 Variance Changes in F Figure.9 Figure.15 Heritability How much variation in a population is due to genetics? Phenotypic Variance Calculate the variance in the population (sample) Heritability is the proportion of phenotypic variation that is caused by genetic variation. V P Components of Phenotypic Variance Variance due to Genetics: V G Genotype x Environment Interaction Phenotype of a given genotype is determined by the environment Variance due to the Environment: V GE V E
3 Variance is Additive! V P = V G + V E + V GE Figure.1 Heritability Broad Sense Heritability How much variation in a population is due to genetics? Heritability is the proportion of phenotypic variation that is caused by genetic variation. H = V G V P Broad Sense Heritability Proportion of Phenotypic Variance attributable to Genetic Variation. Ranges from to 1 Components of Genetic Variance Genetic Variance can be decomposed into: Additive Genetic Variance Dominance Genetic Variance Epistatic Genetic Variance 3
4 Additive Genetic Variance Dominance Genetic Variance V A V D Additive effects of genes on the phenotype INTRAgenic interaction (Dominance) effects on the phenotype Genic Interaction Variance Variance is Additive! V I INTERgenic interaction (Epistasis) effects on the phenotype V G = V A + V D + V I Summary Equation: V P = V A + V D + V I + V E + V GE V G CAUTION! This model deals with the VARIANCE in a POPULATION This model says nothing about the absolute value of the trait. We still don t know anything about the underlying genetics of the trait.
5 Narrow Sense Heritability Narrow Sense Heritability Proportion of Phenotypic Variance attributable to Additive Genetic Variation. Ranges from to 1 h = V A V P Additive genetic variation is primarily responsible for resemblance among relatives. Calculation of Heritability Estimation of Variance Components Parent Offspring Regression Degrees of Relatedness Estimation of Variance Components Set one Variance Component to zero: V E = All organisms grown in a common environment Very difficult in practice V G = Clonal lines or highly inbred lines (no genetic variation) Not possible with many organisms Clonal Lines V P = V G + V E + V GE 5
6 Clonal Lines Clonal Lines V P = V G + V E + V GE V G =, V GE = No genetic variation: V P = V G + V E + V GE V G =, V GE = No genetic variation: V P = V E Outbred Population: V P = V G + V E + V GE V G = V P - V E H = V G V P This estimate from Clonal lines Estimation of Variance Components Difficult to eliminate environmental variance Not possible to make genetically identical individuals in all organisms Not a commonly used method Parent Offspring Regression The slope of the regression is equal to the narrow sense heritability* Genetic variance is reflected in the fact that offspring resemble their parents Plot offspring phenotype against parental phenotype Single parent Mid Parent (Mean parent) Figure.17
7 If the offspring phenotype is regressed on only ONE PARENT, then: h = b b = h =.7 Figure.1 Degrees of Relatedness Twin Studies in Humans: Monozygotic Twins share 1% of their genes Dizygotic Twins share 5% of their genes H = (r MZ r DZ ) Degrees of Relatedness Narrow Sense Heritability estimated using full sibs (5% genes in common) and half sibs (5% genes in common). Also called sib analysis This method is quite common What Heritability Tells Us Proportion of phenotypic variance in a population that is due to (additive) genetic variation. Statistical prediction of offspring phenotype Response to selection (coming soon!) Limitations of Heritability Does NOT indicate the degree to which a trait is genetically determined. Heritability is a POPULATION measure. An individual does not have heritability! There is NO UNIVERSAL heritability for any trait. Specific to one population, in one environment 7
8 Limitations of Heritability High heritability does not preclude environmental influence on a trait. Heritability indicates nothing about the nature of population differences. Heritability is a BLACK BOX. It tells us nothing about the nature of the genetic variation it is measuring. Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) Lots of genetic markers RFLPs, microsatellites, AFLP, mutations, Can correlate the segregation of genetic markers with Phenotype for a quantitative trait.
