POP Statement
POP variable </ options> ;

One variable can be specified in the POP statement to designate population groups of individuals. By default, the appropriate statistics, combined across all alleles and loci, are reported in the "Combined F Statistics" table. This statement is ignored if the TALL option is used.

The following options can be specified after a slash (/):

FPERMS=number

indicates that number permutations of the data should be used to calculate -values for testing that the statistics are significantly greater than 0. Large values of number (10,000 or more) are usually recommended for accuracy, but long execution times can result, particularly with large data sets. When FPERMS=0 (the default) or the option is omitted, no -values are reported.

INDIVLOCI

requests that the statistics be reported for each individual marker locus that is represented in the VAR statement. When this option is specified, the "Marker F Statistics" table is created.

ZEROF

indicates that HWE should be assumed at all loci for the calculation of the statistics, thus reducing the number of parameters to be estimated.
