A new definition of genetic distance.

Human genetics - 1 Oct 1991

Kazarinova-Fukshansky N, Hummel K

Abstract excerpt

A stochastic measure of genetic distance between populations is proposed; unlike currently used measures, it is invariant with respect to union and subdivision of loci. This measure enables a unified quantitative approach to genetic diversity within populations and genetic distance between populations.
