Next, find the total allele count. This can be found by adding the count for all of the blood type alleles and multiplying by 2. In this example, the total allele count is: 2 x (250 + 550 + 150) = 1900
1 Answer: Since we believe that the homozygous recessive for this gene (q 2) represents 4% (i.e. = 0.04), the square root (q) is 0.2 (20%). 2  The frequency of the dominant allele. 3  Answer: Since q = 0.2, and p + q = 1, then p = 0.8 (80%). Since q equals the frequency of the a allele, then the frequency is 60%. 2  The frequency of the A allele. 3  Answer: Since q = 0.6, and p + q = 1, then p = 0.4; the frequency of A is by definition equal to p, so the answer is 40%.
