The Hardy-Weinberg equation is a mathematical equation that can be used to calculate the genetic variation of a population at equilibrium. In 1908, G. H. Hardy and Wilhelm Weinberg independently ...

The Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium is a principle stating that the genetic variation in a population will remain constant from one generation to the next in the absence of disturbing factors.

Mathematician G.H. Hardy ... Weinberg independently derive a formula for the frequency of gene variants in populations. Their work will become a foundation of the science of population genetics.

The Hardy-Weinberg ... population. In this population we assume there is random mating and sexual reproduction without normal evolutionary forces such as mutation, natural selection, or genetic ...
