The project I'm working on now, on evolutionary divergence, is in a slow patch so I am going to try my hand at some Mendelian genetics while I wait.

 

I've looked around at some articles and websites and I think I might know how to go about all of this, but I am still wondering if anyone has any tips for this. I can imagine this sort of thing is trial-and-error so I'm open to suggestions on how to proceed.

 

Also, thought this website was cool for amateur genetics: http://www.bioservers.org/bioserver/

It's a cool website that let's you upload sequences and then analyze them for various things. Pretty nifty.

What exactly are you trying to do?

The web site offers lots of accurate infomation?

To ecoli: Sorry, I didnt give details about what I'm trying to do (my inner noob escaping). I'm going to try to observe inheritance; how physical traits are passed on and how they are expressed in the litter. General observational stuff about inheritance.

 

To Primarygun: Yes, it analyzes sequences pretty well and if you look at the Public records there are quite a few professional labs using the site. I think it's pretty cool, but it is a little tricky to upload and save sequences.
