Accurate inference of subtle population structure (and other genetic discontinuities) using principal coordinates.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2009

Reeves Patrick A, Richards Christopher M

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Accurate inference of genetic discontinuities between populations is an essential component of intraspecific biodiversity and evolution studies, as well as associative genetics. The most widely-used methods to infer population structure are model-based, Bayesian MCMC procedures that minimize Hardy-Weinberg and linkage disequilibrium within subpopulations. These methods are useful, but suffer from...
