Estimate the allele frequencies of the alleles

Reference no: EM1390349

Assume you are studying an enzyme in a large population of a newly discovered diploid plant. You have determined that there are 4 alleles for this enzyme. You designate the alleles C, R, A and P, you analyze 1500 plants and you obtain the following genotypes and numbers of each:
CC = 239
CR = 148
CA = 101
CP = 275
RR = 66
RA = 317
RP = 122
AA = 42
AP = 179
PP = 11
What are the allele frequencies of the alleles C, R, A, P based on your analysis of this population?
A. 0.33
B. 0.32
C. 0.24
D. 0.18
E. 0.59
F. 0.43
G. 0.20
H. 0.64
I. 0.15
J. 0.23
