Question 1
1.1 Comparison of observed heterozygosity (Ho) and expected heterozygosity
(He):
The observed heterozygosity (Ho) is 0.20, which is significantly lower than the expected
heterozygosity (He) of 0.52. This indicates that the population has less genetic diversity
than would be expected under random mating conditions, suggesting inbreeding or a
genetic drift within the isolated population.
1.2 Inbreeding Coefficient (Fis):
1.2.1 Higher Fis value explanation: The higher inbreeding coefficient (Fis = 0.65) in
the isolated population compared to the non-isolated population (Fis = 0.09) suggests
that the isolated population is experiencing higher levels of inbreeding. This is likely due
to the lack of gene flow from neighboring populations, leading to a decrease in genetic
diversity.
1.2.2 Consequences of inbreeding: Inbreeding in the population can lead to:
Inbreeding depression, which may cause reduced fertility, survival, and overall
fitness.
Increased expression of deleterious alleles, which can result in genetic
disorders or other health issues.
