Selection coefficient

s= selection coefficent

pq = genetic variation (allele frequencies) 

as the overall genetic variation increases, the delta p also increases

though, as the individual p allele increases, there is no pattern to be saw

    My definitions of SPQ and Delta P are as follows:
    S = selection coefficient
    Delta P = change in allele frequency or Delta P = S*(PQ)
    P = frequency of allele
    Q = frequency of 1-p

    Our definitions were pretty much the same with the exception of Q and and Delta P but I think overall we definitely agree.

    My definitions were this:
    S is the selection coefficient is related to the fitness or adaptive value of a given genotype
    Q can be defined as the frequency of (1-P).
    P can be defined as the frequency of the specific alleles.
    A correlation to be spotted is that as the genetic variation continues to increase, the overall Delta P does also increase.

    Overall I think we had the same understanding of them!!! Great job :))))))
