Multiple Alleles
All chicken have combs on their heads, but it does not always look the same. The comb is a fleshy growth on the top of
the chicken's head. Both male and female chickens have combs, but the ones on the male are larger. Combs of
different breeds may look different in shape and even in color.
Chicken comb features:
rrpp = single
rrP_ = pea
R_pp = rose
R_P_ = walnut
1. What must be the genotypes of the two parents for the outcome to always be a walnut offspring?
(neither can be walnut to begin with) ____________ x _____________ = walnut (R_P_)
2. Show a Punnett square for the following cross and describe the phenotypic ratios. RrPp x RrPp
3. Show a punnett square for the following cross and describe the phenotypic ratios. rrpp x RrPp
4. Show a punnett square for the following cross and describe the phenotypic ratios. rrpp x rrPp
5. A rose crossed with a pea produces six walnut and five rose offspring. What must be the genotypes of the parents?
Show the cross.
Hardy-Weinberg Principle
• Natural selection acts on individuals, but only populations
evolve
• Explain this statement
Hardy-Weinberg Principle
• Describes a non-evolving population
• The gene pool does not change
– Gene pool - all alleles for all loci in the
population
– Allele frequencies remain constant in nonevolving populations
• Why do this?
Allelic variation within a population can
be modeled by the HardyWeinberg equations.
A Population in Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium
http://zoology.okstate.edu/zoo_lrc/biol1114/tutorials/Flash/life4e_15-6-OSU.swf
The seven assumptions underlying Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium
are as follows:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
7.
organisms are diploid
only sexual reproduction occurs
generations are non overlapping
mating is random
population size is infinitely large
allele frequencies are equal in the sexes
there is no migration, mutation or selection
Fig. 23-6
Interpretation:
A population with 80% dominant and 20% recessive alleles
that meets the conditions for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
will pass 80% dominant and 20% recessive alleles to the next
generation
Alleles in the population
Frequencies of alleles
p = frequency of
CR allele
= 0.8
q = frequency of
CW allele
= 0.2

Hardy-Weinberg equations:
- p+q=1
- p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1
- Describes alleles in a gene pool
- This is the equation for a trait with 2 alleles
- Can be used to predict genotypes
-
p – represents dominant allele
q – represents the recessive allele

Gametes of this generation:
64% CR + 16% CR
= 80% CR = 0.8 = p
4% CW + 16% CW = 20% CW = 0.2 = q
Genotypes in the next generation:
64% CRCR, 32% CRCW, and 4% CWCW plants
Reality
• Hardy-Weinberg - hypothetical population
• In real populations, allele and genotype
frequencies change over time
You have sampled a population in which you know that the percentage of the
homozygous recessive genotype (aa) is 36%. Using that 36%, calculate the
following:
A. What is the frequency of the
"aa" genotype in the population?
B. What is the allele frequency of
the "a" allele?
The winged trait is
dominant.
C. What is the frequency of the
"A" allele in the population?
D. What is the frequencies of the
genotype "Aa” in the
population?
E. What is the frequencies of the
two possible phenotypes if "A" is
completely dominant over "a."
