3 points
|
|
frequency of an allele (method 2)
|
2(# homozygous obs.) + (#heterozygous obs.)
|
|
|
HWE - Hardy Weinberg Equilibrium
|
expected frequencies:
p^2 AA 2pq Aa q^2 aa total = 1.0 p+q = 1 |
|
|
Chi-Square Test of HWE
|
(O-E)^2 / E
if 95 % certain, then X^2 = 3.84 |
|
|
Assumptions of HWE
|
-for autosomal loci in sexual, monoecious (hermaphroditic) diploids
-assumes random mating, no natural selection, no migration, no genetic drift, no mutation -if yes, --> deviation |
|
|
nonrandom mating
|
-indivs choose mates on basis of any heritable character
-most common cause of deviation -interacts w/ natural selection & genetic drift |
|
|
endogamy
|
indivs tend to mate in own subgroup (ie race),
-mating not random w/ respect to species as whole -mating random w/ respect to subgroup |
|
|
inbreeding
|
mating b/w relatives more common than by chance
-inbreeding depression of heterozygotes |
|
|
ecological factors promoting local inbreeding:
|
-social behavior
-poor dispersal - ie acorns to tree -patchy resources |
|
|
enforced outbreeding / negative inbreeding
|
-mating b/w relatives less common than by chance
|
|
|
positive assortative mating
|
like x like
ie height, skin color |
|
|
negative assortative mating
|
like x unlike
|
|
|
inbreeding vs assortative mating
|
-inbreeding applies to whole genome
-asst. mating applies to a particular phenotype |
|
|
inbreeding coefficient F
|
more homozygosity by descent
|
|
|
systematic inbreeding
|
leads to complete homozygosity
ie 2 alleles --> 1 lost (f=0) 1 fixed (f=1) |
|
|
Population genetic mechanisms:
(1-5) |
1) Natural selection
2) Migration 3) Nonrandom mating 4) Finite N / genetic drift 5) Mutation |
