Population differentiation through mutation and drift--a comparison of genetic identity measures.

Genetica - 1 Jan 1998

Tomiuk J, Guldbrandtsen B, Loeschcke V

Abstract excerpt

Different genetic identity or distance measures are compared that consider allelic variation within and between populations. Particularily we analyse those suggested by Nei (IS, DS), Rogers (DR), Reynolds, Weir and Cockerham (D theta), Nei, Tajima and Tateno (DA), Tomiuk and Loeschcke (ITL, DTL) and Goldstein et al. ((delta mu)2). The simulations focus on the influence of non-equilibrium conditions on the...
