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
Start with the known genotype, bb. It makes up 0.25 of the population, the frequency of the b allele is sqrt(0.25) = 0.5. If the frequency of b = 0.5, then the frequency of B is 1-0.5 = 0.5. Using the H-W equations, q = 0.5 and p = 1 - q = 0.5.Equation #2, pâ2 + 2pq + qâ2 = 1 becomes 0.25 + 0.5 + 0.25 = 1.ince you know that q^2 = 25/100 = 0.25, just take the square root to find the allele frequency of q. (q^2)^1/2 = 0.5 Lastly, since p + q = 1 always, the frequency of the dominant allele p is 1 - q = 1 -.5 = 0.5. Source(s): green_commander Â· 5 years ago.
