Population structure and eigenanalysis.

Text

For two equal size subpopulations, there is a threshold value of FST, , below which there will be essentially no evidence of population structure. Above the threshold, the evidence accumulates very rapidly, as we increase the divergence or the data size. Above the threshold for fixed data size mn, the evidence is stronger as we increase m, as long as n ≫ m.
