Allele frequency is stable The phenotype frequency does not change.
The distribution of alleles in a population - APEX
In terms of a population, evolution is just the change of allele frequencies over time. Natural selection can cause certain advantageous alleles to increase in frequency, and detrimental alleles to decrease in frequency.
An allele frequency measures how common certain alleles are in the population. "The distribution of alleles in a population" -Apex
In population genetics the frequency of individual alleles remain constant as long as alleles are neither selected for or against. Phenotypic frequency varies based on the relative frequency of the various dominant and recessive alleles in the population. Further, if selection is taking place phenotype will tend to change in the direction of the allele selected. If the population is small enough there is also the factor of genetic drift, which can change phenotype in one direction within a few generations. Populations are certainly being acted on and alleles selected whether they are obvious phenotypically...if these traits are linked with ones that are visually apparent the change will manifest phenotypically but the change occurs because of linkage to the selected trait as opposed to by selection for the phenotypically obvious one. Some traits give an advantage.

An allelotype is a frequency distribution of a set of alleles in a population.
the relative frequency of allele H is 68 percent!
