Population Genetics FRSC 8104 Criminalistics II Professor Bensley
FRSC 8104 – Pop. Genetics Objectives • Comprehend the basic concepts of population genetics to include definitions of various terms. • Apply the concepts of the Hardy-Weinburg equilibrium to systems commonly encountered in forensic serological testing. • Apply the law of independent events and Chi Square distribution to forensic serological concepts.
FRSC 8104 – Pop. Genetics Outline • Introduction – Review • Definitions – Review? • Allele • Homozygous • Heterozygous • Genetics • Genotype • Phenotype • Diploid • Haploid
FRSC 8104 – Pop. Genetics Outline • Meiosis
FRSC 8104 – Pop. Genetics Outline • Spermatogenesis • Oogenesis • New Hypothetical System • Allelic Frequency Calculations • Phenotype Frequency Calculations • Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium • Conditions • Assumptions • Reality • Law of Independent Events
FRSC 8104 – Pop. Genetics Outline • ABO Blood Type Phenotype Frequencies • Forensic Examples • Secretors and Non-Secretors • Probability of a “Match” • Probability of Discrimination • Chi Square Distribution
Chi Square Example Chi Square = .059 + .269 + .307 = 0.635 Degrees of Freedom = #phenotypes - # alleles = 3-2 =1 Use Chart of Chi Square Distribution If your Chi Square calculated value falls below the 0.05 column the population is assumed to follow H-W principles.
