Usage

test.between(data, test.lev, rand.unit, nperm, ...)

Arguments

data

a data frame containing the genotypes for the different loci

test.lev

A vector containing the units from which to construct the contingency tables

rand.unit

A vector containing the assignment of each observation to the units to be permutted

nperm

The number of permutations to carry out for the test

...

Mainly here to allow passing diploid=FALSE if necessary

Value
