Evaluation of the linkage-disequilibrium method for the estimation of effective population size when generations overlap: an empirical case

BACKGROUND: Within the genetic methods for estimating effective population size (N(e)), the method based on linkage disequilibrium (LD) has advantages over other methods, although its accuracy when applied to populations with overlapping generations is a matter of controversy. It is also unclear the...
