Subject: Population Genetics --Wright Fisher Model
A population conforms to the assumptions of the idealized Wright-Fisher model except that N fluctuates, each generation i. The populations starts at No = 1000 and Fo = 0. Values of N2, N3, N4 and N5 are 100, 1000, 10, and 1000 respectively for the next four generations.
(a) Calculate the expected homozygosity in the 5th generation , i.e. F5, by calculating Fi for each preceding generation and then for F5.
(b) Calculate the effective population size and use this to calculate F5 (i.e. a different way from in a) and then compare your answer to the answer in a)
