Bayesian approaches for the analysis of population genetic structure: an example from Platanthera leucophaea (Orchidaceae).

Abstract excerpt

We describe four extensions to existing Bayesian methods for the analysis of genetic structure in populations: (i) use of beta distributions to approximate the posterior distribution of f and theta(B); (ii) use of an entropy statistic to describe the amount of information about a parameter derived from the data; (iii) use of the Deviance Information Criterion (DIC) as a model choice criterion for determining...
