Comparison of genetic distance measures using human SNP genotype data.

Human biology - 1 Aug 2009

Libiger Ondrej, Nievergelt Caroline M, Schork Nicholas J

Abstract excerpt

Quantification of the genetic distance between populations is instrumental in many genetic research initiatives, and a large number of formulas for this purpose have been proposed. However, selection of an appropriate measure for assessing genetic distance between real-world human populations that diverged as a result of mechanisms that are not fully known can be a challenging task. We compared results from nine...
