Software for taking a quick look at a GENEPOP file and allowing
the user to view basic statistics for the data. There are many
computer programs available that perform complex calculations on
genetic data. However, finding a program to answer simple
questions such as how many alleles are present at a locus or how
much missing data there is a data set can be annoying. Many
programs, of course, perform these tasks, but they are often
bundled with functions that are not wanted or require learning
how to use a complicated program. I have written the computer
program Genotype Viewer to help with common tasks that
frequently arise in a molecular ecology lab. Genotype Viewer
opens GENEPOP files, so it should be easy to use. Genotype
Viewer opens GENEPOP files and displays the following: - The
genotypes of each individual in the data file - The sample size
for each population & locus - The number of missing genotypes
for each population and locus - Allele counts for each
population and locus - Allele frequencies for
