diversity.stats.between-methods: Diversities

Description

A generic function to calculate nucleotide & haplotype diversities between populations (dxy).

Usage

# S4 method for GENOME
diversity.stats.between(object,new.populations=FALSE,subsites=FALSE,keep.site.info=FALSE,
haplotype.mode=FALSE, nucleotide.mode=TRUE)

Arguments

object

An object of class "GENOME"

new.populations

list of populations. default=FALSE

subsites

"transitions": SNPs that are transitions. "transversions": SNPs that are transversions. "syn": synonymous sites. "nonsyn": nonsynonymous sites. "exon": SNPs in exon regions. "intron": SNPs in intron regions. "coding": SNPs in coding regions (CDS). "utr": SNPs in UTR regions. "gene": SNPs in genes. "intergenic" : SNPs in intergenic regions.

keep.site.info

Store SNP specific values in the region.stats

haplotype.mode

Haplotype Diversities

nucleotide.mode

Nucleotide Diversities

Value

Returned value is a modified object of class "GENOME" --------------------------------------------------------- The following slots will be modified in the "GENOME" object ---------------------------------------------------------

	Slot	Reference	Description
1.	nuc.diversity.between	[1,3]	Nucleotide diversity (between the population)
2.	hap.diversity.between	[1]	Haplotype diversity (between the population)

Details

The nucleotide diversities have to be devided by [e-mail] to give diversities per site.
