Inference of genetic clusters is a key aim of population genetics, sparking development of
numerous analytical methods. Within these, there is a conceptual divide between finding de …

Advancing technologies have facilitated the ever‐widening application of genetic markers
such as microsatellites into new systems and research questions in biology. In light of the …

Abstract genodive version 3.0 is a user‐friendly program for the analysis of population
genetic data. This version presents a major update from the previous version and now offers …

Although vast technological advances have been made and genetic software packages are
growing in number, it is not a trivial task to analyse SNP data. We announce a new r …

The pophelper r package and web app are software tools to aid in population structure
analyses. They can be used for the analyses and visualization of output generated from …

Abstract genalex is a user‐friendly cross‐platform package that runs within Microsoft Excel,
enabling population genetic analyses of codominant, haploid and binary data. Allele …

Studies of local adaptation provide important insights into the power of natural selection
relative to gene flow and other evolutionary forces. They are a paradigm for testing …

Genetic data are often used to assess 'population connectivity'because it is difficult to
measure dispersal directly at large spatial scales. Genetic connectivity, however, depends …

Microsatellite null alleles are commonly encountered in population genetics studies, yet little
is known about their impact on the estimation of population differentiation. Computer …

Landscape genetics seeks to determine the effect of landscape features on gene flow and
genetic structure. Often, such analyses are intended to inform conservation and …
