Number of diploid individuals sampled
This figure indicates that 29 diploid individuals are sufficient to detect an allele present at
a frequency of 0.05 at least 95% of the time. If the allele is present at 0.1, only 15 individuals
need to be sampled.
It is likely that at least one copy of each allele that exists at frequencies greater than
0.1 will be detected at Salt Camp and Coyote Camp. An important caveat to note is that
the frequencies of alleles in these samples may differ significantly from the actual population
frequencies, though at least alleles are represented in the sample. The sample from Boulders
is considerably smaller and may not represent adequately the diversity of the alleles at that
site. Table 3 gives the number of fish genotyped from each site.
3 Analyses of empirical data
The analyses for this study can be divided into those that assess the quality of the data
available (section 3.1), the genetic behavior of the loci employed (sections 3.4 and 3.5), and
the biological question of how is marker-genetic variation apportioned in captive and wild
Humpback chub populations (sections 3.7 and 3.8).
