[A]: According to Hardy-Weinburg law both gene frequencies and genotype frequencies will remain constant from generation to gen- eration in an infinitely large interbreeding population. [R]: Alleles segregating in a population tend to establish an equilibrium with reference to each other, thus maintain both frequencies constant.

An individual heterozygous for two alleles (AaBb) produces two million sperms. How many of the sperms will have both recessive alleles

Change of frequency of alleles in a population results in evolution is proposed in :

According to Hardy-Weinberg's principle, the allele frequency of a population remains constant. How do you interpret the change of frequency of alleles in a population?

A gene locus has two alleles A, a. If the frequency of dominant allele A is 0.4, then what will be the frequency of homozygous dominant, heterozygous and homozygous recessive individuals in the population

A collection of all the alleles of all the genes of a crop plant is called :

In plant breeding programme, the entire collection (of plants/seed) having all the diverse alleles for all genes in a given crop is called

Write the formula to calculate allele frequency in future generations according to Hardy-Weinberg genetic equilibrium.

[A]: Each gemete has only one allele for each trait. [R]: It is true of single trait crosses only.

Natural selection can eliminate a deleterious allele, arising out of mutation, only when it is:
