FABSIM: a software for generating FST distributions with various ascertainment biases
UNLABELLED We have developed a software that applies ascertainment bias on simulated DNA sequences and calculates F(ST) on them, so they can be used to generate neutral distributions that are appropriate to test whether the genetic differentiation of a particular gene between populations is compatible with neutral evolution, or, on the contrary, suggests local adaptation by natural selection. ...
متن کاملPitfalls of Ascertainment Biases in Genome Annotations — Computing Comparable Protein Domain Distributions in Eukarya
Most investigations into the large-scale patterns of protein evolution are based on gene annotations that have been compiled in reference databases. The use of these resources for quantitative comparisons, however, is complicated by sometimes vast differences in coverage. More importantly, however, we also observe substantial ascertainment biases that cannot be removed by simple normalization p...

متن کاملAscertainment biases in SNP chips affect measures of population divergence.
Chip-based high-throughput genotyping has facilitated genome-wide studies of genetic diversity. Many studies have utilized these large data sets to make inferences about the demographic history of human populations using measures of genetic differentiation such as F(ST) or principal component analyses. However, the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chip data suffer from ascertainment biases ...
متن کاملEmpirical Distributions of FST from Large-Scale Human Polymorphism Data
Studies of the apportionment of human genetic variation have long established that most human variation is within population groups and that the additional variation between population groups is small but greatest when comparing different continental populations. These studies often used Wright's F(ST) that apportions the standardized variance in allele frequencies within and between population...
