Implication

Computational tool demonstrates a rarefaction method to count private alleles across population combinations, highlighting improved correction for sample size disparities.

Key Points

To introduce ADZE, a computational tool implementing a rarefaction framework to count alleles private to specified combinations of populations.
Formulated a rarefaction algorithm to estimate expected numbers of private alleles across population subsets while correcting for sample size variation.
Implemented the mathematical framework into a freely accessible software package named ADZE.
Released the publicly accessible ADZE software tool to automate rarefaction analysis across multidimensional population datasets.
Provided an analytical framework to reliably evaluate population-specific genetic diversity independently of unequal sample sizes.
