Genotypes in the population

Reference no: EM13527773

A total of 6029 North American Caucasians were PCR typed for the I locus,
which is determined by only two codominant alleles, IA and IB. This locus controls night vision.The following data were obtained:

Genotypes in the population:
IA IA 1737
IA IB 3009
IB IB 1283

Carry out a chi-square test to determine whether this population is in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium at the I locus. Don’t forget to explain your interpretation of the Chi Square analysis….
