Populations & gene pools
 Concepts
a population is a localized group of
interbreeding individuals
 gene pool is collection of alleles in the
population

 remember difference between alleles & genes!

allele frequency is how common is that
allele in the population
 how many A vs. a in whole population
AP Biology
Evolution of populations
 Evolution = change in allele frequencies
in a population


hypothetical: what conditions would
cause allele frequencies to not change?
non-evolving population
REMOVE all agents of evolutionary change
1. very large population size (no genetic drift)
2. no migration (no gene flow in or out)
3. no mutation (no genetic change)
4. random mating (no sexual selection)
5. no natural selection (everyone is equally fit)
AP Biology
Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium
 Hypothetical, non-evolving population

preserves allele frequencies
 Serves as a model (null hypothesis)


natural populations rarely in H-W equilibrium
useful model to measure if forces are acting on
a population
 measuring evolutionary change

Hardy-Weinberg theorem
 Counting Alleles
assume 2 alleles = B, b
 frequency of dominant allele (B) = p
 frequency of recessive allele (b) = q

 frequencies must add to 1 (100%), so:
p+q=1
BB

Hardy-Weinberg theorem
 Counting Individuals



frequency of homozygous dominant: p x p = p2
frequency of homozygous recessive: q x q = q2
frequency of heterozygotes: (p x q) + (q x p) = 2pq
 frequencies of all individuals must add to 1 (100%), so:
p2 + 2pq + q2 = 1

Application of H-W principle
 Sickle cell anemia

inherit a mutation in gene coding for
hemoglobin
 oxygen-carrying blood protein
 recessive allele = HsHs
 normal allele = Hb

low oxygen levels causes
RBC to sickle
 breakdown of RBC
 clogging small blood vessels
 damage to organs

AP Biology
often lethal
Sickle cell frequency
 High frequency of heterozygotes
1 in 5 in Central Africans = HbHs
 unusual for allele with severe
detrimental effects in homozygotes

 1 in 100 = HsHs
 usually die before reproductive age
Why is the Hs allele maintained at such high
levels in African populations?
Suggests some selective advantage of
being heterozygous…

Single-celled eukaryote parasite
(Plasmodium) spends part of its
life cycle in red blood cells

Heterozygote Advantage
 In tropical Africa, where malaria is common:

homozygous dominant (normal)
 die or reduced reproduction from malaria: HbHb

homozygous recessive
 die or reduced reproduction from sickle cell anemia: HsHs

heterozygote carriers are relatively free of both: HbHs
 survive & reproduce more, more common in population
Hypothesis:
In malaria-infected
cells, the O2 level is
lowered enough to
cause sickling which
kills the cell & destroys
the
parasite.
