Question

Here C has 2 alleles C1 and C2 and same with D allele. C1D1 are the haplotypes for both of the populations:

  C1 D1 C1D1
   
First Population 0.3 0.5 0.45
Second Population 0.5 0.2 0.15

 

1. find the linkage disequilibrium between C and D in first and second population

2. does first population has fewer or mare haplotypes than expected

3. Cosider the recombinantion fraction as 0.1. How many generation will linkage disequilibrium in first population take to be equal to the current value in second population

 

Expert Solution
Step 1: Linkage disequilibrium

A measure of the non-random relationship or relationship between alleles at two or more loci (gene locations) on a chromosome is referred to as linkage disequilibrium (LD). It demonstrates the manner in which, more frequently than would be predicted by chance, the existence or lack of a certain allele at one site is correlated with the presence or absence of a particular allele at another locus.
