Question
Consider the following one locus, two-allele selection models to answer the following questions. Initial allele frequencies are p(A1)= 0.95 q(A2)= 0.05
Genotypes A1A1 A1A2 A2A2 Fitness 0.98 0.98 1.0
(Yes or No)
18. Does either allele show dominance with respect to fitness?
19. Given the above fitness values, will directional selection occur?
20. Given the fitness values is there an equilibrium allele frequency for this population?
21. Given the fitness values and initial allele frequencies will mean population fitness change between generations?
22. If selection occurs in the population will the rate of change in allele frequency be constant over time?
Explanation / Answer
18 No 19 Yes 20 No 21 No 22 No
