Hi.
I don't do English well......
I'm studying the population structure and trying to do the expansion time from mismatch distribution
the time since the expansion (t) is estimated tusing the equation τ=2ut , in contrast t can be get the expansion time using the equation t=τ/2u
but I don't know and understand the equation
my data values : Tau (τ) - 6.26 , theta0 - 0.00000 , theta1 - 20.56629 , SSD - 0.01979 , u - 7x10–8 (s.s.yr–1) (
I got the data from mismatch distribution in arlequin
if I use the equation, t= 6.26/2x7x10–8. right?
comparing the reference paper, ex) Tau (τ) - 8.85, u - 7x10–8 , the expansion time is estimated 511,000 ybp (years before present)
t=τ/2u , 8.85/2x7x10–8 = t , but when I calculate the reference values I didn't get the expansion time (511,000 ybp)
I don't know how I calculate the expansion time from mismatch distribution in Arlequin
please, help me..
