Statistical methods in spatial genetics.
The joint analysis of spatial and genetic data is rapidly becoming the norm in population genetics. More and more studies explicitly describe and quantify the spatial organization of genetic variation and try to relate it to underlying ecological processes. As it has become increasingly difficult to keep abreast with the latest methodological developments, we review the statistical toolbox avai...
متن کاملStatistical methods in genetics
In recent years, a very large variety of statistical methodologies, at various levels of complexity, have been put forward to analyse genotype data and detect genetic variations that may be responsible for increasing the susceptibility to disease. This review provides a concise account of a number of selected statistical methods for population-based association mapping, from single-marker tests...
متن کاملBayesian Methods in Fisher’s Statistical Genetics World
Statistical genetics is a scientific discipline that covers any statistical analysis of genetic data. The interplay between statistics and genetics has a long history, dating back to the seminal work by Fisher almost a century ago to confirm the genetic theory of chromosomal inheritance (Piegorsch, 1990). Recent advancements in genotyping (i.e., collecting genetic data) technologies have produc...
متن کاملSpatial statistical methods in health.
The study of the geographical distribution of disease incidence and its relationship to potential risk factors (referred to here as "geographical epidemiology") has provided, and continues to provide, rich ground for the application and development of statistical methods and models. In recent years increasingly powerful and versatile statistical tools have been developed in this application are...
متن کاملA spatial statistical model for landscape genetics.
Landscape genetics is a new discipline that aims to provide information on how landscape and environmental features influence population genetic structure. The first key step of landscape genetics is the spatial detection and location of genetic discontinuities between populations. However, efficient methods for achieving this task are lacking. In this article, we first clarify what is conceptu...
