The effects of sample size on population genomic analyses – implications for the tests of neutrality

BACKGROUND: One of the fundamental measures of molecular genetic variation is the Watterson’s estimator (θ), which is based on the number of segregating sites. The estimation of θ is unbiased only under neutrality and constant population growth. It is well known that the estimation of θ is biased wh...
