In a recent letter to this journal, Depaulis and Veuille (1998)Citation discussed two possible tests of neutrality, the "haplotype number test" and the "haplotype diversity test." They present in their tables 1 and 2 means and percentage points of the distribution of the number Kn of haplotypes and the sample heterozygosity Hn = 1 - , where are the relative frequencies of those haplotypes in a sample of size n for different values of the number of segregating sites s observed in the data. They assume a neutral infinitely-many-sites model of mutation with no recombination. These percentage points were found by repeatedly simulating a random coalescent tree with n tips, randomly distributing s mutations on the . . . [Full Text of this Article]
