Drawing inferences about the coancestry coefficient.

Theoretical population biology - 1 Jun 2009

Samanta Suvajit, Li Yi-Ju, Weir Bruce S

Abstract excerpt

The coancestry coefficient, also known as the population structure parameter, is of great interest in population genetics. It can be thought of as the intraclass correlation of pairs of alleles within populations and it can serve as a measure of genetic distance between populations. For a general class of evolutionary models it determines the distribution of allele frequencies among populations. Under more...
