Evolutionary and statistical properties of three genetic distances.

Molecular ecology - 1 Aug 2002

Kalinowski Steven T

Abstract excerpt

Many genetic distances have been developed to summarize allele frequency differences between populations. I review the evolutionary and statistical properties of three popular genetic distances: DS, DA, and theta;, using computer simulation of two simple evolutionary histories: an isolation model of population divergence and an equilibrium migration model. The effect of effective population size, mutation rate,...
