For tree species, two aspects were considered: one, classification of populations for biomass modeling should be compatible with that for volume modeling; two, assurance that the amount of stand area and volume stock for each separate modeling population of certain tree species (or group) is sufficient.
Initially, the program was allowed to assign individuals to clusters without a priori classification of populations.
In contrast, no alleles were observed in Dokai Bay that were not also observed in Tokyo Bay. STRUCTURE analysis of nuclear microsatellite data without a priori classification of populations indicates that Japanese Carcinus are substantially diverged from their native congeners (Figure 4).
Tabachnik and Powell 16 also made the distinction between hybrid populations made up of largely F1 individuals and the stable freely interbreeding populations they observed, and noted that taxonomic classification of populations in California as Cx.
It started as a description of demographic changes using a classification of populations into three groups according to different combinations of mortality and fertility levels resulting in three groups of countries with different population growth rates (75).
Actually, this low genetic differentiation between most Sahelian and East African populations suggests a possible climate and biome link that is supported by the significant association of NAT2 genetic structure with a classification of populations according to ecoregions.
In general the classification of populations appeared rather uncorrelated with the geographical origin of rye accessions, but rather reflected the source of the accessions, and, to a degree, the improvement status of the accessions.
On the other hand, Bolnick et al. [ 8] suggest that the expectation based on classification of populations as patrilocal or matrilocal is robust in Native Americans, at least with respect to the linguistic differences.
This genetic structure does associate more strongly with a classification of populations according to ecoregions than to subsistence strategies, mainly because most Sahelian and East African populations display little to no genetic differentiation between them, although both regions hold nomadic or semi-nomadic pastoralist and sedentary agriculturalist communities.
In order to gain a better understanding of the molecular changes that accompanied alteration in methionine concentration, we next determined which of the SNPs were significantly associated with the classification of populations according to their direction of selection, i.e. HM vs LM.
A major advantage of the MST approach is that the algorithm may result in trees with star-like branches, which allows for a correct classification of population systems that have a strong mutational or recombinational rate, such as P. aeruginosa, and where a large number of single locus variants (SLVs) may evolve from one common type [7].
