Given an inheritance pattern of incomplete dominance and 81 flowers that are red (R1R1), 18 flowers that are pink (R1R2), and 1 flower that is white (R2R2), the frequency of the R1 allele is 0.9.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The frequency of the R1 allele is calculated as (2*81 + 1*18) / (2*100) = 0.9, where 81 is the number of R1R1, 18 is the number of R1R2, and 100 is the total number of alleles (2 alleles per flower).
