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

Fequency of B
= 100 % of BB + 500 % of Bb
= 22 % + 31 % = 53 %
Frequency of b
= 100% of bb + 50 5 of Bb
= 16 % + 31 % = 47 %
