How do you calculate population genetics?
It is determined by counting how many times the allele appears in the population then dividing by the total number of copies of the gene. The gene pool of a population consists of all the copies of all the genes in that population.
How do you calculate Hardy-Weinberg P and Q?
To find q, simply take the square root of 0.09 to get 0.3. Since p = 1 – 0.3, then p must equal 0.7. 2pq = 2 (0.7 x 0.3) = 0.42 = 42% of the population are heterozygotes (carriers).
How is genotype frequency calculated?
The frequency of genotype Aa is determined by multiplying 2 times the frequency of A times the frequency of a. The frequency of aa is determined by squaring a. Try changing p and q to other values, ensuring only that p and q always equal 1….
| Genotype | Expected Frequency |
|---|---|
| Aa or A1A2 | pq + pq (or 2pq) |
| aa or A2A2 | q * q = q2 |
How do you calculate inbreeding coefficient?
In general, for autosomal loci, the inbreeding coefficient for an individual is F = (½)(n1+n2+1), where n1 and n2 are the numbers of generations separating the individuals in the consanguineous mating from their common ancestor. (This formula assumes that the common ancestor is not inbred.)
Why is 2pq not PQ?
Note that the heterozygotes are not 2pq but pq because in each case they are only being considered for the one allele in question. If we scale all wii’s such that the largest = 1.0 we refer to these as the relative fitnesses of the genotypes. A worked example where p = . 4, q = .
How do you calculate W Bar?
Take the Hardy-Weinberg equation and multiply each term (the frequency of each genotype) by the fitness of that genotype. Add those up and you get the mean fitness, w (“w-bar”).
Do genotype frequencies add up to 1?
Notice that these genotype frequencies add up to 1.
Does inbreeding change allele frequencies?
Inbreeding causes a loss of heterozygosity with no expected change in allele frequencies. In contrast to inbreeding, genetic drift causes the random loss of alleles from small populations. As alleles are lost, homozygosity necessarily increases.
How do you calculate haplotype frequency?
- Observed haplotype data.
- Calculated allelic frequency.
- D = x11 – p1q1;
- D = 0.6 – (0.7)(0.8) = 0.6 – 0.56 = 0.04.
- D = (x11)(x22) – (x12)(x21) D = (0.6)(0.1) – (0.1)(0.2) = 0.04.
