title: The effect of non-random migration on genetic differences between populations.
abstract: Models of genetic population structure generally assume that emigrants from each local group are drawn at random from the set of individuals born there. We show that small violations of this assumption can have disproportionately large effects on genetic population structure, and we introduce a statistical method for measuring this effect.
