	Punnett square - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A Punnett square is genetic tool designed by Reginald Punnett that biologists continue to use in order to determine the probability of an offspring expressing a particular genotype.
		In the Punnett square example above, 50 % of the offspring will have a dominant homozygous genotype (RR), and a 50% probability that the genotype will be heterozygous (Rr).
		Using the genotypes of the two rats, a table is made putting one of the rat's genotype on the top row and the other rat's genotype down the left column.

	Reginald Punnett - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Punnett was also the creator of the Punnett square, a tool in genetics which is still used by biologists today to predict the probability of possible genotypes of offspring.
		Punnett became the first Arthur Balfour Professor of Genetics at Cambridge, when Bateson left Cambridge in 1912 and was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in the same year.
		Punnett received the society's Darwin Medal in 1922.

	Introducing Punnett Squares
		A Punnett square is a chart which shows/predicts all possible gene combinations in a cross of parents (whose genes are known).
		Using Punnett Squares, you can predict the genotypes and phenotypes of the offspring of a cross between a homozygous (purebred) tall pea plant and a homozygous (purebred) short pea plant.
		Write the possible gene(s) of one parent across the top and the gene(s) of the other parent along the side of the Punnett square.

	Punnett Squares [Athro, Limited: Biology: Genetics]
		A Punnett square is a simple graphical way of figuring out how the genes from each parent might combine to produce an offspring.
		The square has four boxes in it, fill each box with the allele above it from the mother, and the allele beside it from the father.
		In addition to showing the possible genotypes of offspring, the Punnett square also indicates how likely a particular child of this mating is to have a given genotype.

	Basic Principles of Genetics: Probability of Inheritance
		It does not matter which parent is on the side or the top of the Punnett square.
		Each of the two Punnett square boxes in which the parent genes for a trait are placed (across the top or on the left side) actually represents one of the two possible genotypes for a parent sex cell.
		Punnett squares are standard tools used by genetic counselors.

		Notice that in the Punnett Square (Figure 1), the symbols for all the possible alleles carried by the male (sperm) are arranged along the top of the square, while all the possible alleles carried by the female are listed on the side.
		Using the Punnett Square, it is easy to see why a breeder might not know that two carriers were bred.
		Biologists around the world soon accepted the chromosome theory that the genes on the chromosomes are the units of inheritance, thereby laying the foundation for the use of the Punnett Square.

		To use a Punnett square, Take the parental genotypes, and determine all of the possible combinations of alleles that could occur in gametes.
		Then, within the square, combine all of the possible gametes from each parent to produce all of the possible combinations of alleles in the offspring.
		When gametes are combined to form new individuals (in the square), we see that 1/4 of the offspring should be DD, 2/4 (or 1/2) should be Dd, and 1/4 should be dd.

	Gene Expression: Beyond the Punnett Square, part n
		Since a standard deviation is the square root of the variance (let's keep it in intelligible units), you get an expected deviation of 1.73 d.u.s during each round of successful reproduction.
		The only moral is one should go beyond the Punnett Square abstraction where phenotypes have simple (monogenic) causes.
		Update: This applies to eye color as well, as I talked to an individual who claimed that their father had brown eyes, and mother green eyes, while they have blue eyes (and seemed sure of paternity based on other resemblences).
