3 allels at a locus, brown dominant to pink and yellow, pink dominant to yellow. what are the frequencies of the B P and Y alleles if the phenotypic frequencies are Brown 64, Pink 27, and Yellow 9?
a. 0.60, 0.15, 0.25
b. 0.60, 0.10, and 0.3
c. 0.35, 0.15, and 0.50
d. 0.4, 0.3, an 0.3
e. 0.64, 0.27, 0.09
The answer should be d but I dont understand why. Isn't phenotype the expression of gene? so why isn't the answer e if they tell us that there are 64 brown, 27 pink and 9 yellow??
Thanks for your help!
