Gene sampling strategies for multi-locus population estimates of genetic diversity (theta).

PloS one - 17 Jan 2007

Carling Matthew D, Brumfield Robb T

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Theoretical work suggests that data from multiple nuclear loci provide better estimates of population genetic parameters than do single loci, but just how many loci are needed and how much sequence is required from each has been little explored. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPLE FINDINGS: To investigate how much data is required to estimate the population genetic parameter theta (4N(e)mu) accurately under ideal...
