eHGDP.RdWorldwide human population microsatellite data from human genetic dievrsity project HGDP consists of 1350 individuals from 79 populations genotyped at 678 microsatellite loci (Cann HM et al 2002).The datasets is used in adegenet package. See adegenet.
data("eHGDP")
eHGDP is a genind object with a data frame named popInfo as supplementary component (eHGDP@other$popInfo), which contains the following variables.
Population: a character vector indicating populations.
Region: a character vector indicating the geographic region of each population.
Label: a character vector indicating the correspondence with population labels used in the genind object (i.e., as output by pop(eHGDP)).
Latitude, Longitude: geographic coordinates of the populations, indicated as north and east degree.
Dq0, Dq1, Dq2: Genetic diversity of order q=0, 1, 2, details can be found in HierDq function.
