摘要

The rho statistic is commonly used to infer chronological dates for molecular lineages, especially from mitochondrial DNA sequences obtained in anthropological contexts. Since this approach was described 12 years ago, it has been applied to estimate molecular dates in more than 200 studies, including some published in top-tier journals. However, this method has not been well evaluated, and the accuracy of dates obtained from the rho statistic remains unknown, especially for 遺傳 data collected from 族群s with complex demographic histories. Here, molecular dates inferred from p are compared against coalescent expectations from a range of demographic models. This exercise reveals considerable inaccuracy. Molecular dates based on rho have a slight downward bias with large asymmetric variance and
