In a population of pea plants, green peas are the result of a homozygous recessive condition. If the frequency of the allele for
kompoz [17]

Answer:

32%

Explanation:

Since the population is in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, the allele and genotype frequencies will remain constant over generations.

The frequency of the recessive allele (q)= 0.20

Since p+q= 1

so, p= 1-q

and p=1-0.20= 0.80

The frequency of heterozygous genotype (2pq) = 2 x 0.20 x 0.80 = 0.32 or 32%

Therefore, the expected frequency of heterozygous genotype in the next generation would be 32%.
