Hi, I want to analyse DNA sequence data (mtDNA) in R as in calculate Fst, Heterozygosity and such summary statistics. Package Adagenet converts the DNA sequence into retaining only retaining the polymorphic sites and then calcuates Fst.. but is there any other way to do this? I mean analyse the DNA sequence as it is.. and calculate the statistics? Thanks! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

...htforward way of handling DNA sequences, but if you plan to do more sophisticated things that can drain your RAM and processor time, I would definitely recommend the more versatile but complex Biostrings package from Bioconductor. www.bioconductor.org/packages/2.2/bioc/html/*Biostrings*.html Happy DNARing!
