Phi_st_Meirmans {mmod}

Calculate Phi_st from a genind object

Description

This function calculates Meirmans' corrected version of Phi_st, an Fst analog produced using the AMOVA framework. Note, the global estimate produced by this function is calculated as the mean distance between individuals across all loci, and this exlcuded individuals with one or more missing value.

Usage

Phi_st_Meirmans(x)

Arguments

x

genind object (from package adegenet)

Value

per.locus Phi_st estimate for each locus

global Phi_st estimate across all loci
