(a) Assuming that Migaloo’s albinism is caused by a rare recessive gene, what would be the likelihood of the establishment of a natural robust subpopulation of albino white humpback whales in this population? (b) Assuming that Migaloo’s albinism is caused by a rare dominant gene, what would be the likelihood of the establishment of a natural robust subpopulation of albino white humpback whales in this population?
a. Two linked biallelic loci (c = 0.1) have allele frequencies pA = 0.7 and pB = 0.4. If these two sites are in linkage disequilibrium with D = -0.12, what are the expected haplotype frequencies under these conditions? b. What will the linkage disequilibrium parameter D be after 20 generations?
8 Rosettes are the dominant coat type (R) in guinea pigs while smooth coat is recessive (r). Of 1630 guinea pigs observed on an expedition in South America, 1190 have rosettes and 440 present with a smooth coat. a. If this muddle of guinea pigs is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for the hair coat locus, what is the frequency of the recessive allele?
A family pedigree is shown here. A. What is the inbreeding coefficient for individual IV-2? Who is/ are her parents’ common ancestor(s)? B. Based on the data shown in this pedigree, is individual III-4 inbred
Consider the following pedigree below for a rare autosomal trait. Be sure to take into account the inbreeding convention, when needed. 1. What is the probability that individual B is heterozygous? 2. What is the inbreeding coefficient of individual E? 3. After divorce, individual “A” decides to marry at random outside the pedigree. If the population allele frequency of the rare autosomal trait is 0.012, what are the chances of having an affected child for his first born of his second marriage?
2. Genes a and b are 21 m.u. apart when mapped inhighly inbred strain 1 of corn and 21 m.u. apart whenmapped in highly inbred strain 2. But when the distance is mapped by testcrossing the F1 progeny of across between strains 1 and 2, the two genes are only1.5 m.u. apart. What arrangement of genes a and band any potential rearrangement breakpoints couldexplain these results?
Considering hybridization in a given trait like the color of the hair of a mammalian species (white/black) conditioned by a pair of different alleles under complete dominance (black dominant, B/ white recessive, w), how can the phenotypical proportion obtained in the F2 generation be explained? What is this proportion?
1. Early hunter-gatherers were interbreeding with colonists who brought agriculture from the Middle East. Did genetic adaptations of agriculturalists, such as the ability to digest milk as an adult, might have undergone genetic recombination with genetic adaptations of hunter-gatherers to potentially create a better adapted population in terms of survival and reproductive success? Why or why not?
In a population with 1000 individuals and at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the frequency of individuals with galactosemia is 4%.a. What are the frequencies of the dominant and recessive alleles?b. What is the expected frequency of the homozygous dominant in the population?c. What would be the expected frequency of the heterozygous dominant after five generations?
Consider the following pedigree below for a rare autosomal trait. Be sure to take into account the inbreeding convention, when needed. What is the inbreeding coefficient of individual E?
