gstat.randtest missing

[osowiecki]

I discovered today that the function gstat.randtest() is missing in the latest two releases of the package. Was there a name change or have you removed the function for some reason?

As far as I know, there never has been a function gstat.randtest in hierfstat . There is a function test.g, perhaps this is what you are looking for? Otherwise, there is gstat.randtest in adegenet. Best regards

It was removed from adegenet and they claim that it was moved to hierfstat.
It is present in 0.04-22 and works.

Has there been a replacement for gstat.randtest and fstat()? I used them in previous versions and found them great! Have they maybe been renamed? I can't find them or the equivalent anywhere.

Thanks for your note. There will not be a replacement for fstat() , as several functions in hierfstat already exist to estimates one of the several Fsts (e.g. basic.stats, wc, fs.dosage. All but the last can also take as argument genindobjects, e.g.:

>data(nancycats)
> wc(nancycats)
$FST
[1] 0.08494959

$FIS
[1] 0.120589 

I'll reintroduce gstat.randtest in the next release
