Question

In the percentage of heterozygotes is 54%.Find the frequency of dominant Allele?

Answer 1

Answer:

Frequency of dominant allele (say p)=0.4

Frequency of recessive allele (say q) =1−0.4=0.6

∴ Frequency of homozygous dominant individuals (AA)

=p2=(0.4)2=0.16

Frequency of heterozygous individuals (Aa) =2pq=2(0.4)(0.6)=0.48

Frequency of homozygous recessive individuals(aa)

=q2=(0.6)2=0.36
