Improved confidence intervals for the linkage disequilibrium method for estimating effective population size.

Heredity - 1 Oct 2016

Jones A T, Ovenden J R, Wang Y-G

Abstract excerpt

The linkage disequilibrium method is currently the most widely used single sample estimator of genetic effective population size. The commonly used software packages come with two options, referred to as the parametric and jackknife methods, for computing the associated confidence intervals. However, little is known on the coverage performance of these methods, and the published data suggest there may be some...
