The five mechanisms for evolution?
|
1. Selection
2. Mutation 3. Mating 4. Migration 5. Genetic drift |
|
|
Hardy-Weinberg
|
Null model which assumes no evolution. If none of the 5 conditions are occurring, H-W equilibrium has been established.
|
|
|
If Hardy-Weinberg then:
|
1. Allele frequency won't change through generations.
2. Allele frequencies will be given by p and q, so then genotype frequencies will be defined by p^2, 2pq, and q^2 |
|
|
Absolute fitness (abs w)
|
(prob of survival x avg # offspring)
Number of offspring produced of a given genotype. |
|
|
Relative fitness (rltv w)
|
(abs w) / (max abs w)
Fitness relative to other genotypes where the most fit is equal to 1. |
