Many different sexual isolation and sexual selection statistics have been proposed in the past. However, there is no available software that implements all these statistical estimators and their corresponding tests for the study of mating behaviour.
JMATING is an easy-to-use program developed in Java for the analysis of mating frequency data to study sexual selection and sexual isolation effects from laboratory experiments as well as descriptive studies accomplished in the wild. The software allows the re-organization of the data previous to the analysis, the estimation of the most important estimators, and a battery of complementary statistical tests.
JMATING is the first complete and versatile software for the analyses of mating frequency data. It is available at http://www.uvigo.es/webs/c03/webc03/XENETICA/XB2/JMsoft.htm and requires the Java runtime environment.
过去已经提出了许多不同的性隔离和性选择统计方法。然而,目前尚无软件能够实现所有这些统计估计量及其相应的检验,以用于交配行为研究。
JMATING是一个用Java开发的易于使用的程序,用于分析交配频率数据,以研究来自实验室实验以及在野外完成的描述性研究中的性选择和性隔离效应。该软件允许在分析之前对数据进行重新组织,估计最重要的估计量,并进行一系列补充统计检验。
JMATING是第一个用于分析交配频率数据的完整且通用的软件。可从http://www.uvigo.es/webs/c03/webc03/XENETICA/XB2/JMsoft.htm获取,并且需要Java运行时环境。
