Variances and covariances of linear summary statistics of segregating sites.

Abstract excerpt

Each mutation in a population sample of DNA sequences can be classified by the number of sequences that inherit the mutant nucleotide, the resulting frequencies are known as mutations of different sizes or site frequency spectrum. Many summary statistics can be defined as a linear function of these frequencies. A flexible class of such linear summary statistics is explored analytically in this paper which include...
