hardy-weinberg law
(här’dē-wīn’bûrg)
a fundamental principle in population genetics stating that the genotype frequencies and gene frequencies of a large, randomly mating population remain constant provided immigration, mutation, and selection do not take place. in the simple case of a chromosome locus with two alleles, a and a, with frequencies p and q respectively, the frequency of the h-m-zygotic genotype aa under random mating will be p2, of heterozygotic aa will be 2pq, and of h-m-zygotic aa will be q2. the law is named for its formulators, british mathematician g-dfrey harold hardy (1877-1947) and german physician wilhelm weinberg (1862-1937).
