Multilocus1.3 Beta

The Multilocus application was designed to be a small program that will facilitate analysis of multi-locus population genetic data. In other words, the utility has the role of analyzing the set of genes that an individual inherits from one of its parents on more than one loci.In particular, it allows calculation of various genotypic diversity indices, various linkage disequilibrium indices, and a measure of population differentiation, and allows one to search for sub-populations which do not share polymorphisms (and thus might be reproductively isolated).In addition, there are randomization routines which allow one to test various null hypotheses. The utility works with Command Line, but the commands are indicated in the CLI so even novices can find out what they need to do next. Simply put, you need to load the input file and, providing that the app can read it, you can print the relevant information, such as diploid, haploid, number of loci, isolates or number of individuals.As previously mentioned, you can perform various analysis on the dataset, but also define the linkage groups, population, set the preferences for handling the missing data, calculating the genotypic diversity and linkage disequilibrium, plot the diversity versus the number of loci or test for haploid partitions.
