Abstract. Genetic and phenotypic variation among populations is one of the fundamental subjects of evolutionary genetics. One question that arises often in
New work from my lab, led by graduate student @janisl98. Janis studied type I error rates in Qst/Fst comparisons (1/n, link to preprint below).
