Answer:
0.8
Explanation:
There is a population where the frequencies of allele 1 and allele 2 are 0.7 and 0.3, respectively
Let's use GG to represent allele 1
Let's use gg to represent allele 2
So we can equally say that;
GG = p = 0.7
gg = q = 0.3 ( from Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium)
So, given that the selection coefficient = 0.2
We known that the cross between GG and gg will definitely results to (GG,Gg and gg)
Then the fitness of these genes can be represented as:
1 - s, 1 and 1 - t respectively.
Thus. the allele 1's genotype fitness can be determined as
= 1 - s ( where s is the selection coefficient)
= 1 - 0.2
= 0.8
