Genetics
1. Estimation of Mutation and Selection
Most mutations are deleterious and selected against. Loss of a mutant allele is calculated by comparing gene frequencies in successive generations to predict fitness. For question below, explain your answers in detail.
Deleterious recessive mutant gene calculation
A. What is the maximum frequency the mutant gene for Fabry’s Syndrome can increase to, at equilibrium? Fabry’s Syndrome, Aut Rec, Fitness of 0, Incidence of 1/1,000,000
