Chapter 17 Population Genetics and Evolution, part 2 Jones and Bartlett Publishers © 2005 Heterozygosity Index • Frequency of heterozygotes at a locus is an indication of genetic structure of a population. • Average heterozygosity – average over many loci. Frequency of heterozygotes under Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium Regardless of starting genotypic frequencies after one generation of random mating frequencies return to Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium • Heterozygosity generally is higher in invertebrates than vertebrates. • Cross-pollinating plants have much higher heterozygosity than selfers. Punnett square showing the results of random mating with three alleles Application of the Hardy-Weinberg principle to the 3 alleles (IA, IB and Io) responsible for the 4 human blood groups (AB, A, B, and O) Hardy-Weinberg with Sex-linkage The frequencies of affected males and females for a recessive X-linked allele Nonrandom Mating • Positive assortative mating – like mate with like. • Negative assortative mating – ex. Primula. • Inbreeding – from selfing to relatives mating. Some hypothetical “Populations” Genetic Drift Sampling error in the production of gametes 10 diploid individuals p = 0.6, q = 0.4 Random Genetic Drift Population size 20 Hatched line is the mean Allele frequencies and population size affect rates of drift Population size affects drift Decreases in heterozygosity across time due to genetic drift for various population sizes Peter Buri’s experiment Bristle number in Drosophila - Mean p and q do not change - Variance among lines increases Predicted population differentiation due to genetic drift Fixation of alleles Depends on allele starting frequencies Effect of drift on heterozygosity Peter Buri’s experiment The chance that a founder population is homozygous at a locus depends on: (a) allele frequencies and (b) number of founders Consequences of inbreeding for genotype & allele frequencies at F = 1 and F = 0 Genotype frequencies under H-W and with complete inbreeding (F = 1) p = 0.4, q = 0.6 Decrease in heterozygosity with successive generations of inbreeding Effect of inbreeding on the genotype frequencies F = Inbreeding Coefficient. Reduction in heterozygosity due to inbreeding (HI) = 2pq (1-F) The frequency of heterozygotes is reduced as inbreeding increases Calculating inbreeding coefficient using allelic identity by descent in an inbred pedigree A pedigree showing inbreeding A closed rectangle in a pedigree indicates inbreeding Calculation of the probability that the alleles indicated by the double-headed arrows are identical by descent The logic behind calculation of allelic identity by descent in a pedigree For example, the probability of producing 2 blue gametes for individual A is 1/2 x1/2 = 1/4. Similarly, the probability of producing 2 red gametes is also 1/4, but the probability of producing a red and a blue gamete is 1/2 (1/4 + 1/4). FA is the inbreeding coefficient of the individual producing the gametes. A complex pedigree in which the individual I received genes from different ancestors through multiple paths Calculation of inbreeding coefficient in a complex pedigree is more involved because each path contributes to the final inbreeding coefficent. Inbreeding increases the chance of having progeny that are homozygous for a rare recessive trait Effect of autozygosity on viability Drosophila 2nd chromosome Inbreeding depression in rats inbreeding depression in the titmouse Frequency of melanic moths of A. Biston betularia B. Gonodontis bidentata Gene flow in corn F = proportion of offspring of recessive plants, grown at different distances from a dominant strain, that were fathered by the dominant strain A plot of p2, 2 pq and q2 as a function of the allele frequencies ( p and q) The frequency of the heterozygote Aa (2pq) is highest at A (p) or a (q) = 0.33 to 0.67 Allele and genotype frequencies for a X-linked gene in males and females Effect of mutation (irreversible or reversible) on allele frequency Allele frequency is changed very slowly by mutation. In the case of reversible mutation, an equilibrium state is reached where the allele frequency becomes constant. Effect of selection for a favored allele (A) in a haploid (Escherichia coli) Results of selection for a favored allele in a diploid depends upon whether the allele is dominant or recessive Effect of the degree of dominance in a diploid on the equilibrium frequency of a recessive lethal allele h = degree of dominance. If the deleterious allele is completely recessive, then h= 0 Geographic distribution of the diseases sickle cell anemia and falciparum malaria The heterozygote is favored over the homozygous dominant genotype (overdominance) in areas where malaria is prevalent. The homozygous recessive is usually lethal. Random genetic drift in 12 hypothetical populations over 20 generations In most of the 12 small populations (8 diploid individuals each), either the “A” or the “a” allele has become fixed. The frequency of the A (or a) allele has not changed when all 12 populations are looked at together Actual results of genetic drift in 107 experimental populations of Drosophila Each population consisted of 8 males and 8 females. The predicted and experimental results are similar except that the actual results show quite a bit more scatter. Speciation has a genetic basis • Speciation may occur suddenly. • Polyploidy is a good example of a sudden reproductive barrier. • Translocations also isolate populations. • Neutralist vs. selectionist debate.
