pixy: Unbiased estimation of nucleotide diversity and divergence in the presence of missing data.

Abstract excerpt

Population genetic analyses often use summary statistics to describe patterns of genetic variation and provide insight into evolutionary processes. Among the most fundamental of these summary statistics are π and dXY , which are used to describe genetic diversity within and between populations, respectively. Here, we address a widespread issue in π and dXY calculation: systematic bias generated by missing data of...
