Question
Transcribed Image Text:Instructions A human pathologist obtains multiple cultures of a diploid pathogen taken from two different parts of the body of a single infected human
individual (samples 1 and 2). Using gel electrophoresis, each culture is screened for its genotype at a locus affecting its virulence (i.e., nastiness)
to the host. The cultures are found to be segregating for fast (F) and slow migrating (S) alleles. Here are the total counts of genotypes the
researcher found in each sample:
Genotypes
FS
SS
420
490
Sample 1
Sample 2

Transcribed Image Text:QUESTION 2
What are the expected genotype frequencies for sample 1 if it is Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium?
Expert Solution
Step 1
Given information
For sample 1
- Count of fast-growing homozygous genotype FF- 90
- Count of heterozygous segregating genotype (FS) - 420
- Count of slow-growing homozygous genotype SS- 490
- Total counts = 490 + 420+ 90= 1000
