Expected Shannon Entropy and Shannon Differentiation between Subpopulations for Neutral Genes under the Finite Island Model.

PloS one - 1 Jan 2015

Chao Anne, Jost Lou, Hsieh T C, Ma K H, Sherwin William B, Rollins Lee Ann

Abstract excerpt

Shannon entropy H and related measures are increasingly used in molecular ecology and population genetics because (1) unlike measures based on heterozygosity or allele number, these measures weigh alleles in proportion to their population fraction, thus capturing a previously-ignored aspect of allele frequency distributions that may be important in many applications; (2) these measures connect directly to the...
