Selection Coefficient




Δp: is defined as s*(pq). 

s: This is the selection coefficient. This is used to measure the advantage of an individual carrying a certain allele. In my example s is 0.02.

p: this is the frequency of the allele

q: this is the frequency of 1- p.

  1. My definitions were Delta P- s.(pq), P is the alleles frequency of A1, Q is allele frequency of A2, and s is the selection coefficient. Our definitions were similar, I love you visuals, super easy to understand!
