Evaluation of the linkage-disequilibrium method for the estimation of effective population size when generations overlap: an empirical case.

BMC genomics - 11 Nov 2015

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Within the genetic methods for estimating effective population size (N e ), the method based on linkage disequilibrium (LD) has advantages over other methods, although its accuracy when applied to populations with overlapping generations is a matter of controversy. It is also unclear the best way to account for mutation and sample size when this method is implemented. Here we have addressed the...
