NAME
       bFst


SYNOPSIS
       bFst –target 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 –background 11,12,13,16,17,19,22 –file my.vcf –deltaaf 0.1


DESCRIPTION
       bFst is a Bayesian approach to Fst.  Importantly bFst accounts for genotype uncertainty in
       the model using genotype likelihoods.  For a more detailed description  see:  `A  Bayesian
       approach  to  inferring  population  structure  from  dominant  markers’  by  Holsinger et
       al. Molecular Ecology Vol 11, issue 7 2002.  The likelihood function has been modified  to
       use  genotype  likelihoods  provided  by  variant callers.  There are five free parameters
       estimated in the model: each subpopulation’s allele frequency  and  Fis  (fixation  index,
       within  each subpopulation), a free parameter for the total population’s allele frequency,
       and Fst.

              required: t,target     -- a zero bases comma separated list of target individuals corrisponding to VCF columns
              required: b,background -- a zero bases comma separated list of background individuals corrisponding to VCF columns
              required: f,file a     -- a proper formatted VCF file.  the FORMAT field MUST contain "PL"
              required: d,deltaaf    -- skip sites were the difference in allele frequency is less than deltaaf
