I am trying to determine whether differences among allele frequencies of separate populations are statistically different. For example, I have genotype data (in AB format) and am trying to prove that the frequencies of Population 1 at locus 1 are different than Population two at locus 1 and so on with Populations 3, 4, and 5. I am NOT trying to determine deviations from Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrum or Linkage Disequilibrium. I just want to know if statistical differences exist between the population frequencies. Is there a way I can do this? What would the code look like?

 

Thank you.

I'm not that familiar with genotype analysis but this sounds like a Chi-Square test
