Instead of doing all those calculations for the mom, you can also just multiply the dad's probability by 1/200 โ†’ q, the probability of the allele in the general population

We assume this is a recessive disease. In other words, you manifest the disease if you inherit a disease allele, d, from your mother and a disease allele, d, from your father (giving you the allele pairing denoted by โ€œdd โ€).

dd = you have the disease.

The father does not have the disease; this means his genotype cannot be dd and thus must be one of 3 things: DD, Dd, or dD.

That is,

  • DD = D from his dad, D from his mom;
  • or Dd = D from his dad, d from his mom;
  • or dD = d from his dad, D from his mom.

Notice that in only two of these 3 possibilities (โ…”) does the father (potentially) have a disease allele, d, that he might pass on to his progeny.
