Please help urgently
In a population, the relative fitness values for the
genotypes at an autosomal locus with 3 alleles, A1,
A2, and A3, are given in the table below:
Genotypes:
АЗАЗ
Fitness:
.05
А1A1 A1A2 А2A2 A1А3 А2А3
1
0.95
1.1
1.1
0.9
1
Now assume there is disassortative mating in the
population for this locus (i.e. individuals choose
mates with a different genotype than themselves)
with F= - 0.2. Under these conditions, what are
the genotype and allele frequencies in the next
generation, due to natural selection?
