question 17

Essay

Consider two loci (A, B), each with two alleles (A and a, B and b, respectively). The frequency (f) of A is known to be 0.30, the frequency (f) of b is known to be 0.25, and the coefficient of linkage disequilibrium (D) between loci A and B is known to be 0.15. What is the expected haplotype frequency of haB? Use the equation D fafB haB to solve. Show your work.
