Statistical tools for seed bank detection.

Abstract excerpt

We derive statistical tools to analyze the patterns of genetic variability produced by models related to seed banks; in particular the Kingman coalescent, its time-changed counterpart describing so-called weak seed banks, the strong seed bank coalescent, and the two-island structured coalescent. As (strong) seed banks stratify a population, we expect them to produce a signal comparable to population structure. We...
