DnaSP, DNA Sequence Polymorphism, is a software package for the analysis of DNA polymorphisms using data from a single locus (a multiple sequence aligned -MSA data), or from several loci (a Multiple-MSA data, such as formats generated by some assembler RAD-seq software). DnaSP can estimate several measures of DNA sequence variation within and between populations in noncoding, synonymous or nonsynonymous sites, or in various sorts of codon positions), as well as linkage disequilibrium, recombination, gene flow and gene conversion parameters. Moreover, DnaSP can conduct a number of neutrality tests, such as (among other), the Hudson, Kreitman and Aguadé (1987), Tajima (1989), McDonald and Kreitman (1991), Fu and Li (1993), and Fu (1997), Ramos-Onsins and Rozas (2002), Achaz (2009) tests, and compute their confidence intervals by the coalescent. The results of the analyses are displayed on tabular and graphic form.
Results Interpretation
Genetic Diversity and Population Dynamics of Bacillus Anthracis
A total of 6 Haplotypes on the basis of the BslA gene of Bacillus anthracis were recognized in the study area. Bacillus anthrax contains a unique control region haplotype localized within the sub-population.
• Overall haplotype diversity; (Mean + SD) hd = 0.866 + 0.09
• Nucleotides diversity; pi = 0.299 + 0.358 was observed.
• FU’s Fs value (3.395) indicates that there is a deficiency of alleles or the population is facing bottleneck effects of genetic selection.
• overall positive Tajima’s D value (0.411) signifies the low level of both low and high-frequency polymorphism indicating a decrease in population size
