Step 1(a):
Since a person can either have Rh plus or minus allele, the frequency of minus allele in Taloyoak is
(100 - 60)% = 40%
Step 1(b):
Since a person can either have Rh plus or minus allele, the frequency of minus allele in Kugaaruk is
(100 - 50)% = 50%
Step 2(a):
Average allele frequency for "plus" for both the villages is (60 + 50)/2 % = 55%.
Step 2(b):
Average allele frequency for "minus" for both the villages is (40 + 50)/2 % = 45%.
Step 3(a):
The expected heterozygosity is given by 2(freuency of plus allele)(fequency of minus allele).
So, expected hetrozygosity in Taloyoak is = 2(0.40)(0.60) = 0.48
Step 3(b):
The expected heterozygosity is given by 2(freuency of plus allele)(fequency of minus allele).
So, expected hetrozygosity in Kugaaruk is = 2(0.50)(0.50) = 0.50
Step - 4
Now, the average of the heterozygosities in Taloyoak and Kugaaruk = (0.48+0.50)/2 = 0.49
So, HS = 0.49
Step - 5
Heterogygosity based on total population = 2(0.55)(0.45) = 0.495
So, HT = 0.495
Step 6:
FST = (0.495 - 0.49)/0.495 = 0.1010...
