2.5 Medical treatment is, or will be, available for several serious autosomal recessive diseases. What would be the long-term consequences if treatment allowed sufferers from such a disease to have on average half the number of children that normal people have, whereas without treatment they would have no children? Assume that the present frequency is the mutation versus selection equilibrium, that in the long term a new equilibrium will be reached, and that no other circumstances change.

2.6 Cystic fibrosis is an autosomal recessive human disease with an incidence of about 1 in 2,500 live births among Caucasians. What would be the consequence in the immediately following generation if the mutation rate were doubled? Assume that the present frequency is the mutation versus selection equilibrium, that back-mutation is negligible, and that affected individuals have no children. Express your result as a percentage increase of incidence and as the number of additional cases per million births.
