Q.75
A predominantly self-fertiizing plant regularly cross-pollinates with a frequency of 3%. Assuming no selection, what will be
the percent of heterozygotes at a locus with two alleles showing gene frequencies of 0.3 and 0.7?
- Equilibrium Heterozygosity under Partial Selfing:
- Outcrossing rate: $t = 0.03$ (3%), selfing rate: $s = 1 - t = 0.97$.
- Allele frequencies: $p = 0.3, q = 0.7 \implies 2pq = 2 \times 0.3 \times 0.7 = 0.42$.
- Inbreeding coefficient at mating equilibrium:
- Frequency of heterozygotes:
- Option Representation: Option 2 represents the corresponding equilibrium percentage. (Correct answer: Option 2)
