poppr (version 2.9.6)

locus_table: Create a table of summary statistics per locus.

Description

Create a table of summary statistics per locus.

Usage

locus_table(
  x,
  index = "simpson",
  lev = "allele",
  population = "ALL",
  information = TRUE
)

Value

a table with 4 columns indicating the Number of alleles/genotypes observed, Diversity index chosen, Nei's 1978 gene diversity (expected heterozygosity), and Evenness.

Arguments

x

a adegenet::genind or genclone object.

index

Which diversity index to use. Choices are

  • "simpson" (Default) to give Simpson's index

  • "shannon" to give the Shannon-Wiener index

  • "invsimpson" to give the Inverse Simpson's index aka the Stoddard and Tayor index.

lev

At what level do you want to analyze diversity? Choices are "allele" (Default) or "genotype".

population

Select the populations to be analyzed. This is the parameter sublist passed on to the function popsub(). Defaults to "ALL".

information

When TRUE (Default), this will print out a header of information to the R console.

Examples

Run this code

data(nancycats)
locus_table(nancycats[pop = 5])
if (FALSE) {
# Analyze locus statistics for the North American population of P. infestans.
# Note that due to the unknown dosage of alleles, many of these statistics
# will be artificially inflated for polyploids.
data(Pinf)
locus_table(Pinf, population = "North America")
}
