As parent's genotypes are missing here, alleles cannot be estimated in offspring, but it is possible to use the example above to estimate it.

What is a Punnett square?

A Punnett square is a diagram used in genetics to estimate genotypic and phenotypic frequencies in offspring from a given genetic cross.

In order to estimate offspring allele frequencies, we need to know parental genotypes by means of a Punnett square.

For example, if both parents are heterozygous for a gene whose alleles are called 'A' and 'a', the Punnett square in offspring is:

        A         a

A     AA      Aa

a     Aa       aa

In this case, 50% of offspring will be heterozygous (genotype 1/2 Aa), whereas 25% will be homo-zygous dominant (1/4 AA) and 25% will be homo-zygous recessive (1/4 aa).

In conclusion, as parent's genotypes are missing here, thereby alleles cannot be estimated in offspring, but you can use the example above to estimate it.
