where p' and q' represent the gene frequencies in the next generation. Such systems have been examined in detail by Fisher [1930]. When tetrasomics are considered, the recurrence relations analogous to these will involve not gene frequencies but gametic genotype frequencies. If there are two alleles, say G and g, there are three possible gametic genotypes GG, Gg, and gg, whose respective frequencies may be denoted by u, v, and w respectively such that
