A new method for ecologists to estimate heterozygote excess and deficit for multi‐locus gene families

Abstract The fixation index, FIS, has been a staple measure to detect selection, or departures from random mating in populations. However, current Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) cannot easily estimate FIS, in multi‐locus gene families that contain multiple loci having similar or identical arrays o...
