4.5 Two large populations of horses are being systematically crossed (mares from one population bred to stallions of the other and vice versa). Coat color is not a factor in determining which animals are selected and which individual mat- ings are made. Frequencies of coat color genes at the C locus are: Population 1 Population 2 с .8 Cr .2 с .3 Cr .7 What will be the gene and genotypic frequencies at the C locus in the offspring (F₁) population? 4.6 If the crossbred offspring from Problem 4.5 are mated among themselves: a. What will be the gene and genotypic frequencies in the F₂ generation? (As- sume random mating, no selection, etc.) b. In the F3 and subsequent generations?
