Generalization of the QST framework in hierarchically structured populations: Impacts of inbreeding and dominance.

Molecular ecology resources - 1 Nov 2017

Cubry Philippe, Scotti Ivan, Oddou-Muratorio Sylvie, Lefèvre François

Abstract excerpt

QST is a differentiation parameter based on the decomposition of the genetic variance of a trait. In the case of additive inheritance and absence of selection, it is analogous to the genic differentiation measured on individual loci, FST . Thus, QST -FST comparison is used to infer selection: selective divergence when QST > FST , or convergence when QST < FST. The definition of Q-statistics was extended to...
