The genodive user interface, with its most important features explained The program has a so-called document-based user interface, which means that multiple documents of different types can be open and analysed simultaneously. This GUI provides a flexible and intuitive way of approaching data and its analysis (see Figure 1), for both students and advanced researchers. Genodive version 3.0 has a fully developed mouse-driven graphical user interface (GUI).

The program is available for computers running Apple Mac OS X 7.0 (“Lion”) and higher. The philosophy behind genodive is to enable the performance of powerful analyses of modern genetic data sets without needing to use any command line tools. Over the years, genodive has been under continuous development and the latest version has an intuitive user interface and implements a wide range of different types of analyses allowing for easy and straightforward testing of evolutionary and ecological hypotheses with genetic data.
#Geographic distance matrix in genodive update
genodive version 3.0 is a major update from the previously published version version 1.0, which was a command line tool that performed only a single task, the estimation of clonal diversity (Meirmans & Van Tienderen, 2004). Here, I present genodive version 3.0, a program for the analysis of population genetic and population genomic data. genodive is available for computers running Mac OS X 10.7 or higher and can be downloaded freely from. In addition, genodive makes it possible to run several external programs ( lfmm, structure, instruct and vegan) directly from its own user interface, avoiding the need for data reformatting and use of the command line. A unique feature of genodive is that it can also open data sets with nongenetic variables, for example environmental data or geographical coordinates that can be included in the analysis.
The different types of analyses offered by genodive include multiple statistics for estimating population differentiation ( φ ST, F ST, Fʹ ST, G ST, Gʹ ST, Gʹʹ ST, D est, R ST, ρ), analysis of molecular variance-based K-means clustering, Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, hybrid index, population assignment, clone assignment, Mantel test, Spatial Autocorrelation, 23 ways of calculating genetic distances, and both principal components and principal coordinates analyses. One major feature of genodive is that it supports both diploid and polyploid data, up to octaploidy (2 n = 8 x) for some analyses, but up to hexadecaploidy (2 n = 16 x) for other analyses. Furthermore, genodive seamlessly supports 15 different file formats for importing or exporting data from or to other programs. genodive has an intuitive graphical user interface that allows direct manipulation of the data through transformation, imputation of missing data, and exclusion and inclusion of individuals, population and/or loci. This version presents a major update from the previous version and now offers a wide spectrum of different types of analyses. Genodive version 3.0 is a user-friendly program for the analysis of population genetic data.
