Fst: Fst (or rho_ST) estimation

In genepop: Population Genetic Data Analysis Using Genepop

Fst (or rho_ST) estimation

Description

Evaluates Fst or related measures based on allele sizes, for all populations of for all pairs of populations. See this section of the Genepop executable documentation for more information on the statistical methods.

Usage

Fst(
  inputFile,
  sizes = FALSE,
  pairs = FALSE,
  outputFile = "",
  dataType = "Diploid",
  verbose = interactive()
)

Arguments

inputFile	The path of the input file, in Genepop format
sizes	logical: whether to estimate allele-size based statistics, or identity-based Fst
pairs	whether to estimate differentiation between all pairs of populations, or to compute a global estimate for all populations
outputFile	character: The path of the output file
dataType	character: The haploid and diploid data
verbose	logical: whether to print some information

Value

The path of the output file is returned invisibly.

Examples

locinfile <- genepopExample('sample.txt')
Fst(locinfile, outputFile= 'sample.txt.DIV')
if ( ! interactive()) clean_workdir(otherfiles='sample.txt')
