Simultaneous estimation of null alleles and inbreeding coefficients. (2009, background): “Null alleles have been reported for microsatellites in numerous organisms, for example, humans (Callen et al. 1993), oystercatcher (Van Treuren 1998), weevil (Liewlaksaneeyanawin et al. 2002), including tree species such as pine (Vogl et al. 2002), spruce (Nascimento de Sousa et al. 2005), and commo”
Mitigating Scoring Errors in Microsatellite Data from Wild Populations (2006, background): “Estimates of adjusted allele frequencies can also be estimated for populations in Hardy–Weinberg disequilibrium when an accurate fixation index, independent of the affected locus, is available ( van Oosterhout et al . 2006 ).”
Host population genetic structure and zooxanthellae diversity of two reef-building coral species along the Florida Reef Tract and wider Caribbean (2010, background): “First, Microchecker ( van Oosterhout et al. 2006 ) determined that there was no evidence for null alleles in either species with the exception of locus MS-11 in the Lower Keys population (expected heterozygotes 17, observed 14).”
