An empirical evaluation of genetic distance statistics using microsatellite data from bear (Ursidae) populations.

Genetics - 1 Dec 1997

Paetkau D, Waits L P, Clarkson P L, Craighead L, Strobeck C

Abstract excerpt

A large microsatellite data set from three species of bear (Ursidae) was used to empirically test the performance of six genetic distance measures in resolving relationships at a variety of scales ranging from adjacent areas in a continuous distribution to species that diverged several million ye...
