Abstract excerpt

Classic concepts of genetic (gene) diversity (heterozygosity) such as Nei & Li's nucleotide diversity were defined within a population context. Although variations are often measured in population context, the basic carriers of variation are individuals. Hence, measuring variations such as SNP of an individual against a reference genome, which has been ignored previously, is certainly in its own right. Indeed,...
