Determining confidence intervals when measuring genetic diversity and the discriminatory abilities of typing methods for microorganisms.

H Grundmann1, S Hori, G Tanner.   

Abstract

We describe here a method for determining confidence intervals for a commonly used index of diversity. This approach facilitates the comparison of the genetic population structure of microorganisms isolated from different environments and improves the objective assessment of the discriminatory power of typing techniques.
