On the testing of Hardy-Weinberg proportions and equality of allele frequencies in males and females at biallelic genetic markers

Standard statistical tests for equality of allele frequencies in males and females and tests for Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are tightly linked by their assumptions. Tests for equality of allele frequencies assume Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, whereas the usual chi-square or exact test for Hardy-Weinbe...
