一个实用的群体遗传学分析软件包——GENEPOP3.1版

A useful population genetics software package—GENEPOP (Version 3.1)

GENEPOP是一个非常实用的群体遗传学分析软件包 ,适用于对大量的群体遗传学数据进行分析。它主要有以下 3个方面的用途 :1)进行正合检验 ,如对哈迪_温伯格平衡、种群差异和位点间的连锁不平衡进行检验 ;2 )估算经典的群体遗传学参数 ,如Fst和其它相关指数及基因频率等 ;3)可把GENEPOP的输入文件转换为其它常用的群体遗传学分析软件包 (如BIOSYS、FSTAT和LINKDOS)所要求的输入文件格式。与软件BIOSYS相比 ,它在所用的统计学检验方法。

GENEPOP is a software package used to analyse data of population genetics. It is able to perform three major tasks, i.e., exact test for Hardy_Weinberg equilibrium, population differentiation and genotypic disequilibrium among pairs of loci, estimation of classical population parameters, such as Fst and other correlations, allele frequencies, etc., convering the input GENEPOP files to formats used by other programs, like BIOSYS, FSTAT and LINKDOS. It has some advantages over other population genetics software such as BIOSYS in statistics test, data type and input files.
