Ancestry-specific recent effective population size in the Americas. [PDF]
Populations change in size over time due to factors such as population growth, migration, bottleneck events, natural disasters, and disease. The historical effective size of a population affects the power and resolution of genetic association studies ...

Responding to a related pair of measurements is often expressed as a single discrimination ratio. Authors have used various discrimination ratios; yet, little information exists to guide their choice. A second use of ratios is to correct for the influence of a nuisance variable on the measurement of interest.

The hierarchical island model revisited
Formulae were derived for the genetic differentiation between populations within a metapopulation (FSM), and between metapopulations (FMT) as functions of migration and mutation rates, size and number of populations and metapopulations. We show that FMT =
