Mendelain populations and the gene pool

Inheritance and maintenance of alleles and genes within a population of randomly breeding individuals

Study of how often or frequent genes and/or alleles appear in the population

Genotypic frequencies – how often do certain allelic combinations appear

Allelic frequencies - how often does an individual allele appear

Page 3: Dean

Genotypic frequenciesfrequency a particular genotype appears (combination of alleles)for moths at rightout of 497 moths collectedBB appears 452 timesBb appears 43 timesbb appears 2 times

FrequenciesBB 452 ÷ 492 = 0.909Bb 43 ÷ 492 = 0.087bb 2 ÷ 492 = 0.004Total 1.000

What about alleles that do show simple dominant - recessive relationship?

How does genotypic frequency really demonstrate flux or change in frequencies of the dominant allele?

What if there are multiple alleles?

Allelic frequencies

Page 5: Dean

Allelic frequency

Allelic frequency = Number of copies of a given allele divided by sum of counts of all alleles

Can also calculate it from the genotypic frequencies

BB was 0.909

Bb was 0.087

bb was 0.004

Therefore frequency of B = Frequency of BB + ½ frequency of Bb

f(B) = .909 + ½ 0.087 = .909 + .0435 = .9525

F(b) = 0.004 + ½ 0.087 = 0.004 + 0.0435 = 0.047

What about multiple alleles?

= (8 +41 + 25) ÷ 548

= 74 ÷ 548

Allelic frequencies at X linked locussame principle

However remember for humans that males only have one X

So that

F(one allele = 2 X the homzygous genotype) + the number of heterozygotes + the males with the phenotype all divided by the number of alleles in the population (2 X females) plus males.

Page 11: Dean

Hardy – Weinberg “law”

Frequencies of alleles and genotypes within a population will remain in a particular balance or equilibrium that is described by the equation

Consider a monohybrid cross, Aa X Aa

Frequency of A in population will be defined as p

Frequency of a in population will be defined as q

Page 12: Dean

Gametes A (p) a (q)

A (p) AA(pp) Aa(pq)

a (q) Aa(pq) aa(qq)

Frequency of AA offspring is then p2

Frequency of aa offspring is then q2

Frequency of Aa offspring then 2pq

Frequency of an allele being present is = 1

Page 13: Dean

p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1

Where p = frequency of “dominant” allele

and q = frequency of “recessive” allele

For the moth example

(0.9525)2 + (2 X (0.953 X 0.047)) + (0.047)2

0.907 + (2 x 0.045) + .002

.907 + .09 + .002 = .999

Is this good enough?

Page 14: Dean

Can be extended to more than two alleles

Two alleles

(p + q)2 = 1

Three alleles

(p + q + r)2 = 1

And X – linked alleles

Can be used to det4ermine frequencies of one allele if the presence of one allele is known

Page 15: Dean

Conditions or assumptions for the Hardy – Weinberg law to be true

Infinitely large population (?)

Randomly mating population (with respect to trait)

No mutation (with respect to locus or trait)

No migration (with respect to locus or trait)

No natural selection (with respect to locus or trait)

Frequencies of alleles do not change over time
