Gene Frequency

Description: 
Gene frequency is the average frequency of occurence of one particular type of gene (allele) in its allelic series at a genetic locus in a breeding population; it is also expressed as the probability of finding a specific gene under consideration when a gene is randomly chosen from the population. Gene is a particular sequence of nucleotides along a molecule of DNA which represents a functional unit of inheritance, and it is not known to subdivide (Rieger et al., 1976; Bath et al., 1985).
