Abstract:
:No proper statistical test is available for the evaluation of deviation of a single homozygous genotype from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) proportion. We propose a 1-d.f. chi2-test. The power of the proposed test is favorable compared to existing HWE testing procedures. The applications of this test are discussed.

GENETICS文献大全abstract::The wild-type Salmonella typhimurium strain LT2 contains six copies of the insertion sequence element IS200 which is unique to Salmonella. We have determined the chromosomal locations of all six copies of IS200 in strain LT2. This was done by mapping the positions of Tn10 elements inserted near each copy of IS200. Suc...
