Measuring and testing genetic differentiation with ordered versus unordered alleles.

Genetics - 1 Nov 1996

Pons O, Petit R J

Abstract excerpt

Estimates and variances of diversity and differentiation measures in subdivided populations are proposed that can be applied to haplotypes (ordered alleles such as DNA sequences, which may contain a record of their own histories). Hence, two measures of differentiation can be compared for a singl...
