| Abstract | The conventional formulas for genotype frequencies in a hybrid population H produced by interbreeding from ancestral populations P(1) and P(2) involve only one hybrid parameter M, equal to the fraction of alleles derived from P(2). For the one-parameter model to be accurate, all individuals of H must have probabilities for alleles determined by one and the same M. When H contains subpopulations that have different values of M, the correct genotype frequencies can be predicted by use of two parameters: (i) M(H), the average of M for all individuals of H and (ii) eta(H), defined like the eta devised by C. A. B. Smith for testing the Hardy-Weinberg Law and computed with a formula like G. R. Price's eta, which involves assortative mating covariance-in this case for the M values of the parents of H. If parents of H have equal average M values for males and females, and mate at random, eta(H) vanishes. For perfect assortative mating, eta(H) is the variance of M for H. As for Smith's eta, eta(H) provides a test of fit of prediction to observed that is sensitive to signs of deviations. Using eta(H) with T. E. Reed's data for Gm in Oakland, California Negroes, his one-parameter fit ('good' by his chi-square test) is significantly rejected (P = 0.04). A simultaneous good fit of Reed's Gm data and his Duffy data results (chi-square, 1 df = 0.88, P > 0.30) from the use of previously published values of 0.23 and 0.047 for M(H) and eta(H). It is concluded that Reed's conclusion that these values were in error is itself in error, as is also his view that differences between M values from different genes and deviations from frequencies expected within genes are not likely to give significant information about variance of M. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
