Gene Frequency

Featured Replies

I am an amatuer geneticist trying to better understand my own DNA. Can someone help me understand gene frequency? 

For example. I have a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) that is listed as having a frequency of 48.7

Does this mean that 48.7% of people have this SNP? 

Thanks!

What does the test description say about it?
