Calculating Gene (Allele) Frequencies in a Population | Genetics

Application of Hardy-Weinberg law in calculating Gene (Allele) frequencies in a population.  The gene frequencies for the autosomal and sex-chromosomal allele can be determined by the help of Hardy-Weinberg law by the following method: A. Calculation of Gene Frequencies of Autosomal Genes: An autosomal gene locus may have codominant alleles, dominant and recessive alleles or multiple alleles. If one desires [...]

Study Notes on Population Genetics

The below mentioned article provides study notes on Population Genetics. Study of the frequency of genes and genotypes in a mendelian population is known as population genetics. In other words, it is a branch of genetics which deals with the frequency of genes and genotypes in mendelian populations. Before dealing with population genetics, it is essential to define mendelian population, [...]
