Mathematics · Population Genetics
A certain trait in a species is governed by variation at a locus that has two alleles (A, B) giving rise to three genotypes: AA, AB, and BB. A sample of 1000 individuals yielded: AA = 400 AB = 400 BB = 200 Assuming random mating and equal representation of genotypes in males and females, which one of the following options gives the expected genotype frequencies in the offspring?
- 1AA: 0.4; AB: 0.4; BB: 0.2
- 2AA: 0.6; AB: 0.2; BB: 0.2
- 3AA: 0.16; AB: 0.16; BB: 0.04
- 4AA: 0.36; AB: 0.48; BB: 0.16✓
Correct answer
AA: 0.36; AB: 0.48; BB: 0.16
