Abstract
Data on genetic diversity and differentiation, as well as kinship between individuals, are important for the conservation of animal and plant genetic resources. Often genetic assignment is part of law enforcement of protected endangered species. The software GDA-NT 2021 is a new, freely available user-friendly Windows program that can be used to compute various measures of genetic diversity and population genetic differentiation. It further allows genetic assignment of individuals to populations and enables the calculation of kinship-coefficients and genetic distances among pairs of individuals within populations. GDA-NT 2021 specifically computes the alternative measures for population differentiation Dj and the standardized FST of Hedrick. It has more options to compute exclusion-probabilities in assignment tests, enables self-assignment tests for variable groups of individuals, and allows for information on geographic positions to be accounted for while using permutation tests to assess statistical significance.
遗传多样性和分化以及个体间亲缘关系的数据对保护动植物遗传资源具有重要意义。基因分配通常是保护濒危物种执法的一部分。软件GDA-NT 2021是一个新的,免费提供的用户友好的Windows程序,可用于计算遗传多样性和群体遗传分化的各种措施。它还允许将个体遗传分配给群体,并能够计算群体内成对个体之间的亲缘关系系数和遗传距离。gdda - nt 2021具体计算了种群分化Dj和Hedrick标准化FST的替代度量。它有更多的选项来计算分配测试中的排除概率,支持对可变个人群体的自分配测试,并允许在使用排列测试评估统计显著性时考虑地理位置信息。
期刊介绍:
Conservation Genetics Resources promotes the conservation of genetic diversity and advances the study of conservation genetics by providing rapid publication of technical papers and reviews on methodological innovations or improvements, computer programs, and genomic resources, as well as on the practical application of these resources towards the development of effective conservation policy and practice.
