How do I analyze population structure using Slatkin & Maddisons s statistic?
We strongly urge you to read about population genetic tools in Mesquite, especially the section containing an example using Slatkin & Maddison’s s statistic to test hypotheses concerning divergence times. There is also a guide which provides basic step-by-step instructions on performing this type of analysis. Additionally, the paper describing the statistic (Slatkin & Maddison, 1989, Genetics 123:603-613) is highly recommended reading.
