Examples when

Either parental imprinting or non-symmetry of parental mating type frequencies with respect to maternal and paternal genotypes may result in being different from .

First, consider a single diallelic DS locus with random mating and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and assume that and . Then, for ASPs,

and hence, by equation (1), .

Consider now a strict-recessive model with general mating type frequencies and .
