QST-FST comparisons with unbalanced half-sib designs.

Molecular ecology resources - 1 Mar 2015

Gilbert Kimberly J, Whitlock Michael C

Abstract excerpt

QST , a measure of quantitative genetic differentiation among populations, is an index that can suggest local adaptation if QST for a trait is sufficiently larger than the mean FST of neutral genetic markers. A previous method by Whitlock and Guillaume derived a simulation resampling approach to statistically test for a difference between QST and FST , but that method is limited to balanced data sets with...
