time_error {junctions}

Estimate the error in the time estimate

Description

Calculate the error in the estimate of the onset of hybridization, following Equations 3 & 4 in the Supplementary information of Janzen et al. 2018.

Usage

time_error(t = NA, N = Inf, R = Inf, H_0 = 0.5, C = 1, relative = TRUE)

Arguments

t

Inferred time

N

Population Size

R

Number of genetic markers

H_0

Frequency of heterozygosity at t = 0

C

Mean number of crossovers per meiosis (e.g. size in Morgan of the chromosome)

relative

Boolean flag, if TRUE: return the relative error, if FALSE: return error in generations

Value

Expected error in the time estimate
