Hi folks, I have assumed that ratios of variance components (Fst and Qst in population genetics) could be estimated using the output of mcmcsamp (the series on mcmc sample estimates of variance components).
What I have started to do is to use the matrix output that included the log(variances), exponentiate, calculate the relevant ratio, and apply either quantile or or HPDinterval to get confidence intervals. This seems too simple but I can't think of what is wrong with it. All thoughts appreciated. -Hank Dr. Hank Stevens, Assistant Professor 338 Pearson Hall Botany Department Miami University Oxford, OH 45056 Office: (513) 529-4206 Lab: (513) 529-4262 FAX: (513) 529-4243 http://www.cas.muohio.edu/~stevenmh/ http://www.muohio.edu/ecology/ http://www.muohio.edu/botany/ "E Pluribus Unum" ______________________________________________ R-help@stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
