Assume that mating is random. First, consider an autosomal recessive disease that is usually lethal in childhood, and that has an incidence among newborns of 1/3000. What mutation rate would be required to maintain this frequency in the population?

#Unit 8. Inheritance Biology

Assume that mating is random. First, consider an autosomal recessive disease that is usually lethal in childhood, and that has an incidence among newborns of 1/3000.  Perhaps the explanation for the incidence of the disease is heterozygote advantage. How large would this heterozygote advantage have to be (assuming the mutation rate is negligible)?
