Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium disturbing influences “Allele and genotype frequencies in a population tend to remain constant in the absence of disturbing influences” Disturbing influences: non-random mating mutations selection limited population size random genetic drift gene flow migration

In Reality… The conditions for Hardy-Weinberg never equilibrium are never met in nature.  There are always some disturbing influences in nature  Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium can be approximated in the lab  It has usefulness as a model for studying real populations

The Equations p 2 + 2pq + q 2 = 1 A gene has two alleles, A and a The frequency of allele A is represented by p The frequency of allele a is represented by q The frequency of genotype AA = p 2 The frequency of genotype aa = q 2 The frequency of genotype Aa = 2pq p + q = 1

An Example… Assume a population in which 36% of the population are homozygous for a certain recessive allele, a. Assume the population is at equilibrium. Question #1: What is the frequency of the recessive allele, a in this population?

An Example… Assume a population in which 36% of the population are homozygous for a certain recessive allele, a. Assume the population is at equilibrium. Question #2: What is the frequency of the dominant allele, A in this population?

An Example… Assume a population in which 36% of the population are homozygous for a certain recessive allele, a. Assume the population is at equilibrium. Question #3: What percentage of the population are homozygous for the dominant allele, A?

An Example… Assume a population in which 36% of the population are homozygous for a certain recessive allele, a. Assume the population is at equilibrium. Question #4: What percentage of the population are heterozygous for this trait?

An Example… Assume a population in which 36% of the population are homozygous for a certain recessive allele, a. Assume the population is at equilibrium. Question #5: Why do we have to start the problem with the percentage of the homozygous recessive in the population? Answer:It is not possible to tell the homozygous dominant (AA) from the heterozygous (Aa) by examining the phenotype! Answer: It is not possible to tell the homozygous dominant (AA) from the heterozygous (Aa) by examining the phenotype!
