Population genetic inferences using immune gene SNPs mirror patterns inferred by microsatellites.

Molecular ecology resources - 1 May 2017

Elbers Jean P, Clostio Rachel W, Taylor Sabrina S

Abstract excerpt

Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are replacing microsatellites for population genetic analyses, but it is not apparent how many SNPs are needed or how well SNPs correlate with microsatellites. We used data from the gopher tortoise, Gopherus polyphemus-a species with small populations, to compare SNPs and microsatellites to estimate population genetic parameters. Specifically, we compared one SNP data set...
