A rancher decided to raise cattle in an isolated valley and bought 1000 head which he transported to the valley to establish a randomly mating population. When released, the animals consisted of 130 white-coated beasts (rr), 330 red (RR), and 540 roan (Rr). A. Does this represent a population in equilibrium? B. What will be the proportions of coat color in the next generation? C. Is this second generation in equilibrium (Given that there is no selective advantage to coat color?)
A. No
B. Red 36%, roan 48%, white 16%
C. Yes. In second generation it is in equilibrium
P2+Q2+2PQ = 1
0.36 + 0.48 + 0.16 = 1
