...For example, in examining how distinct solutions – both major and minor modes – change across a range of K values, Wang et al. (2007) observed multimodality at certain values of K, but found that solutions for larger K could be viewed as refinements of several of the modes observed at lower K....

...…in cases in which simultaneous examination of multiple modes at multiple K values is of interest, such as when the clustering pattern in the most frequently occurring mode for a given K does not provide a refinement of the corresponding solution for a smaller choice of K (Wang et al. 2007)....

...First, we modified the © 2015 John Wiley & Sons Ltd similarity threshold, using either a fixed similarity threshold in the range of 0.6–0.9, reasonable in light of past choices (Wang et al. 2007; Jakobsson et al. 2008), or by the default approach in which the threshold was determined dynamically....

...For example, Wang et al. (2007) and Jakobsson et al. (2008) identified as modes all sets of replicates for which the pairwise similarity score for each pair of runs exceeded a specific threshold....

...In estimating the impact on economic development of migratory distance from east Africa, via its e¤ect on genetic diversity, this research overcomes limitations and potential concerns that are presented by the existing data on genetic diversity across the globe (i.e., measurement error, data…...

...…since random sampling errors are more prevalent in circumstances in population genetics (e.g., Prugnolle et al., 2005; Ramachandran et al., 2005; Wang et al., 2007) have found strong empirical evidence in support of this prediction.12 The present study exploits the explanatory power of…...

...On the other hand, using an expanded data set comprised of the 53 HGDP-CEPH ethnic groups and an additional 24 Native American populations, Wang et al. (2007) nd that migratory distance explains a more modest 74% of the variation in genetic diversity, based on allelic frequencies for 678 loci....
