Advanced Genetics

The video explores advanced genetics topics beyond Mendelian principles, focusing on non-Mendelian genetics. It covers phylogenetic trees, linked genes, polygenic inheritance, sex linkage, and non-nuclear inheritance. The video explains how mitochondrial DNA helps trace evolutionary history and discusses the limitations of Mendel's independent assortment. It also illustrates polygenic inheritance using height and explains sex-linked traits like colorblindness. Finally, it delves into non-nuclear inheritance, highlighting the role of mitochondrial and chloroplast DNA.
