Question
In a certain population, the frequency of three genotypes is as follows:
What is the likely frequency of B and b alleles?
| Genotypes: | BB | Bb | bb |
| Frequency: | 22% | 62% | 16% |
✓
Answer
Frequency of B allele = all of BB + of Bb
= 22 + 31 = 53%
Frequency of b allele = all of bb + of Bb
= 16 + 31 = 47%.
= 22 + 31 = 53%
Frequency of b allele = all of bb + of Bb
= 16 + 31 = 47%.
