PopGen2: Linkage Disequilibrium
... We have seen that under Hardy-Weinberg conditions the genotypes AA, Aa, and aa will occur in the proportions p2, 2pq, and q2 (where p + q = 1) after just one generation of random mating. This is a random association of alleles within genotypes. Consider a second autosomal locus with alleles B and b, ...
