Statistical analyses of population genetic data: new tools, old concepts.
Several methods or tests and various software are currently being developed for analyzing data in population genetics and ecology, which often rely on computer-intensive algorithms. The potential user is thus confronted with the painful experience of freedom and, in particular, has to makea priori choices between different methods. Using examples drawn from population genetics, we explain some of these recently developed tools.
