Figure 15.12: One Generation of Random Mating Restores Hardy–Weinberg Equilibrium Generation I of this population is made up of migrants from several source populations, and so is not in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. After one generation of random mating, the allele frequencies are unchanged, and the genotype frequencies return to Hardy–Weinberg expectations. The lengths of the sides of each rectangle are proportional to the allele frequencies in the population; the areas of the rectangles are proportional to the genotype frequencies.
