The Difference in the Proportions of Deleterious Variations within and between Populations Influences the Estimation of FST

The Difference in the Proportions of Deleterious Variations within and between Populations Influences the Estimation of FST

Estimating the extent of genetic differentiation between populations is an important measure in population genetics, ecology and evolutionary biology. The fixation index, or FST, is an important measure, which is routinely used to quantify this. Previous studies have shown that the FST estimated for...
