calcFst {relSim}

Caculate locus-wise and population F_{ST} values

Description

This procedure uses the method of Weir and Cockerham to estimate \theta (F_{ST}) for a population with substructure

Usage

calcFst(Pop, subPopIdx = NULL)

Arguments

Pop

An object type 'population'

subPopIdx

If this vector is not null, then it must consist of N elements with values from 1 to n_s representing which subpopulation each member of Pop$profiles belongs to. If it is null then it is assumed that the population consists of n_s subpopulations of equal size N_s so that n_s\times N_s = N

Value

A vector of length n_{loci}+1 with locus-wise \theta values and an overall \theta value for the population
