This program is based on the paper by Coart et al. (Conservation Genetics 6:259-273, 2005)
and has been written by Rémy J. Petit (Petit@pierroton.inra.fr).

It computes comparable measures of diversity (allelic richness and % polymorphic loci) from AFLP data. 

The source file should be an ASCII file (its name should have 8 characters maximum: 12345678.txt) and should include the 
following information:

First line : Number of AFLP loci (=polymorphic band) Number of populations Rarefaction sample size (equal or lower than the smallest 
population sample size)

Second line: Population sample sizes

Subsequent lines:
Locus 1: Number of [+] genotypes in pop 1, 2...  
Locus 2: Number of [+] genotypes in pop 1, 2...  
...

See the example (aflptest.txt and aflptest.out)

No column should be empty and each population (row) should be composed of AT LEAST 3 individuals.

Good luck!
