<div><font size="2">Hi Marina, <br>
'inbreeding' in adegenet will estimate the likelihood function of the inbreeding coefficient (F), which is a richer result than a mere test of significance: you get the full distribution of F, that is, which values of F are most likely given your data.
<br>
Note that 0.5 does not have any specific meaning here (did you mean 5%?), but it is actually quite a strong inbreeding already. F=0.5 means there are 50% chances of being homozygote through shared ancestry only.<br>
Cheers<br>
Thibaut<br>

<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418806590579_2666" dir="ltr">i'm sending a message for the first time on the forum and i would like to take this opportunity to thank all of you and your messages for their interesting help .</div>
<div id="yui_3_16_0_1_1418806590579_3001" dir="ltr">At the moment, i'm trying to understand significant positive Fis in many study sites. I checked for null alleles first and it's ok for the set of loci. Then i would like to discriminate inbreeding consequences
and wahlund effect. So i would like to know if i can use the mean inbreeding coefficient for each study site (from the inbreeding function in the adegenet package) to validate or not the inbreeding hypothesis. Is it enough to reject it since all the values
are under 0.5 ?</div>
