Question

Voles were trapped in different fields and meadows of the Goucher campus and were genotyped for the transferrin gene. The following numbers of genotypes were recorded, where T^E and T^F are different alleles.

            T^E T^E 277

           

            T^E T^F    295

            T^F T^F     28

What are the allele frequencies?

            f(T^E) =

            f(T^F) =

Is the population at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium? Explain.
