Copyright © 2008 Pearson Education Inc., publishing as Pearson Benjamin Cummings 19 • Natural populations can evolve at some loci, while being in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium at other loci Copyright ©

Benjamin Cummings • The occurrence of PKU is 1 per 10,000 births – q2 = 0.0001 – q = 0.01 • The frequency of normal alleles is – p = 1 – q = 1 – 0.01 = 0.99 • The frequency of carriers is – 2pq = 2 x
