AFLPOP 1.1 – Population Assignment Program for AFLP data

AFLPOP 1.1

:: DESCRIPTION

AFLPOP (Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism) is a population allocation and simulator program based on amplified fragment length polymorphism markers. The allocation method is an adaptation of Paetkau’s method for co-dominant alleles. Besides population allocation of specimens of unknown origin, re-allocation of sample genotypes, as well as allocation of artificial (Monte Carlo) specimens, may be run to estimate expected rates of correct allocations.

WHICHLOCI 1.0 – Use Genotype data to Identify the loci most useful for Population Assignment

WHICHLOCI 1.0

:: DESCRIPTION

WHICHLOCI concerns these individual based population assignment methods but presents the method looking back on itself. Trial assignments with loci one at a time allows ranking of loci in terms of their efficiency for correct population assignment and conversely their propensity to cause false assignments. Subsequent trials with increasing numbers of loci determines what minimum number of which specific loci is required in order to attain defined power for population assignment.
