In a certain population, the frequency of three genotypes is as follows
`{:("Genotypes",BB,Bb,"bb"),("Frequency",22%,62%,16%):}`
What is the likely frequency of B and b alleles ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The likely frequency of B =BB+1/2 Bb
`=[22+(62)/(2)]%`
The likely frequency of b =bb+1/2 Bb
`=[16+(62)/(2)]%`
=47%
