NUNEZ-COLIN, C.A. Does the hardy-weinberg law of equilibrium work in autopolyploids as it does in diploids?. BAG, J. basic appl. genet. [online]. 2018, vol.29, n.1, pp.51-64. ISSN 1852-6233.

The law of equilibrium Hardy-Weinberg is the cornerstone of the population genetics and of the quantitative genetics; however, for its calculation in autopolyploids it is necessary take in account that the allelic and gametic frequencies are different, contrary to the diploids where they are the same. This causes that the calculations must be done with the allelic frequencies or gametic based on allelic frequencies. Otherwise the equilibrium is broken in the population and the bias that this entails in the calculation of other genetical test like Wright’s F statistics, the Nei’s GST or Bayesian models that are based on the disequilibrium that populations show. That is why in this work they developed models of one locus with two alleles in autotetraploid and autooctoploid genotypes to make a generalization of the law of equilibrium in autopolyploid populations.
