polyfreqs (version 1.0.2)

point_Hobs: Estimation of observed heterozygosity

Description

INTERNAL: Estimates a posterior distribution for the per locus observed heterozygosity using the unbiased estimator of Hardy (2015) and the poterior samples of genotypes calculated by polyfreqs.

Usage

point_Hobs(genotypes, ploidy)

Arguments

genotypes
A matrix of estimated genotypes returned from the function get_map_genotypes.
ploidy
The ploidy level of individuals in the population (must be >= 2).

Value

Returns per locus estimates of observed heterozygosity (per_locus_Hobs).

Details

Posterior distributions for the per locus observed heterozygosity are automatically calculated and returned by the polyfreqs function.
