Two-sample tests for comparing intra-individual genetic sequence diversity between populations.
Consider a study of two groups of individuals infected with a population of a genetically related heterogeneous mixture of viruses, and multiple viral sequences are sampled from each person. Based on estimates of genetic distances between pairs of aligned viral sequences within individuals, we develop four new tests to compare intra-individual genetic sequence diversity between the two groups. ...
متن کاملAn Efficient Test for Comparing Sequence Diversity between Two Populations
We address the problem of comparing interindividual genomic sequence diversity between two populations. Although the methods are general, for concreteness we focus on comparing two human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected populations. From a viral isolate(s) taken from each individual in a sample of persons from each population, suppose one or multiple measurements are made on the genetic se...
متن کاملGenetic Diversity between Two South Florida Slash Pine Populations
South Florida slash pines provide an important microhabitat for some native Florida species, however, less than 1% of the original slash pine forest remains due to deforestation and hurricanes (DERM, 1995). This population decline makes it essential to study the genetic diversity of the remaining pine forest. Therefore, in this study we tested the hypothesis that geographic isolation has led to...
متن کاملComparing two Formulas of Sample Size Determination for Prevalence Studies
Background and purpose: Sample size and its determination is one of the most important problems in health researches. Calculating sample size for prevalence studies is one of the common questions of sample size topics. Minimum sample size with least complexity is desirable in order to achieve the basic goal of these studies. This study aims to compare two formulas of sample size calculation for...
متن کاملThe congruence between matrilineal genetic (mtDNA) and geographic diversity of Iranians and the territorial populations
Objective(s):From the ancient era, emergence of Agriculture in the connecting region of Mesopotamia and the Iranian plateau at the foothills of the Zagros Mountains, made Iranian gene pool as an important source of populating the region. It has differentiated the population spread and different language groups. In order to trace the maternal genetic affinity between Iranians and other populatio...
