Question

Consider a population of 5694 adults, with the following numbers of different genotypes: A1A1 - 15 individuals A1A2- 1224 individuals A2A2 - 4455 individuals ) Find the frequency of A 2) Estimate the fitness of each genotype as the ratio of observed/expected adults. (Use the Hardy-Weinberg frequencies, given your calculated value of p, as the "expected" values.) 3) Plot W vs. p for this case (where p is the frequency of Aj) 4) Find all stable equilibrium value(s) of p. Note: You can find the equilibrium in either of two different ways. You can choose which approach to use. Graphically: Plot W as a function of p, using the given genotypic fitness values, and then visually find the value of p at which w is maximized. Or Analytically: Substitute the given genotypic fitness values into the equation for dw/dp, set this function equal to zero, then solve for p (ie. find the value of p at which dw/dp 0)
