Figure 6.

Application of the estimators ${\stackrel{\sim }{H}}_{\text{BLUE}}$ and ${\widehat{H}}_{\text{full}}$ to the estimation of $F_{\text{ST}}$ as ${\widehat{F}}_{\text{ST}}$ and ${\stackrel{\sim }{F}}_{\text{ST},\text{BLUE}},$ respectively, from empirical data. Similarly to Figure 4, the difference between the mean of the estimator of $F_{\text{ST}}$ (either derived from ${\stackrel{\sim }{H}}_{\text{BLUE}}$ or ${\widehat{H}}_{\text{full}}$) and an unbiased estimator (derived from ${\widehat{H}}_{\text{red}}$), is displayed on the vertical axis, while the SD of the estimator is displayed on the horizontal axis. The empty circles represent the Reynolds et al. (1983) estimator (identical to the ${\widehat{H}}_{\text{full}}$-derived estimation), while the filled circles represent the estimation derived from ${\stackrel{\sim }{H}}_{\text{BLUE}}.$ Here, the $F_{\text{ST}}$ values for the French sample with each of the 92 other samples containing related individuals in the dataset MS5795 are plotted, colored by the region of the changing sample.
