New era of Population Genetics data analysis

As we have already know the R environment and other open sources tools are changing the way we perform and think on data analysis.  And this revolution is touching the population genetics data analysis as well.  Recently I discovered (so late) two very interesting R packages that perform basic and multivariate statistical analysis on gene frequencies accounted from populations. These packages are “pegas” and “adegenet”. The former I am using to test HW equilibrion (loci), gametic disequilibrium and F-statistics. The later I am using to access population structure (or sub-structure) into my data set through multivariate methods.  For more information I recommend:
