Population genetics of Prairie blazingstar in Kansas
A researcher surveys genetic variation in the Skdh (shikimate dehydrogenase)
gene from a Kansas population of prairie blazingstar plants (Liatris
pychnostachya).
She obtains the data in the table below. There are two alleles, Fast (F) and Slow (S),
named for their position in the electrophoresis gel. Values in the table are
number of individuals with each genotype.
FF
50
FS
200
SS
150
What is the frequency of the SS genotype in this population? (The observed
genotype from the data.) Report your answer to the nearest 0.001.

Using these data, calculate the frequency of the Fallele. Report your answer to
the nearest 0.001.

Complete Table 1, recording the difference you see between mutant and wild-type flies with appropriate symbols, sketches, or descriptions. First, examine wild-type flies that are considered normal for all traits listed below. Place a plus sign in the appropriate space to signify the normal condition. Carefully examine flies from four mutant stocks prepared as unknowns in the laboratory and compare them with the wild type. If the unknown flies are wild-type for a given trait, place a plus sign in the appropriate space. If they are different from wild-type, diagram the mutant trait or use one or two key words to describe it briefly.
