Bugs detected in DnaSP version 6
Detected in version 6.12.01 (64-bit version)
Problem in the GUI: Open Unphase/Genotype Data File option. This option does not work under the 64-bit version. Please use the 32-bit version. [Unfixed bug]
Detected in version 6.11.01 (or > 6.00)
Numeric Problem. Fu's Fs test: If the number of alleles is high, DnaSP v6 could erroneously compute the statistic value (the result provided by DnaSP v5 is correct). [Bug reported by Andrew Wiewel] [Fixed in version 6.12.01]
Detected in version 6.10.04.
Multi-MSA Data File Analysis (All Sites; VCF Files): For some loci, the values of the Hst statistic can be erroneous (DnaSP reportes a -8 value). [Fixed in version 6.11.01]
Detected in version 6.00.70.
Multi-MSA (VCF Files) Analysis: The values of the Dxy and Da statistics (*.Btw.out files) can be erroneous. [Fixed in version 6.00.73]
Problem in the GUI: Coalescent Simulations (n-loci | 1-pop). DnaSP does not show correctly the color of some columns. [Fixed in version 6.00.73]
Detected in version 6.00.68.
Multi-MSA (RADseq) Analysis: In some cases, the reported value for the Nst statistic (*.GFlow.out files) can be erroneous. [Fixed in version 6.00.70]
Detected in version 6.00.66.
Problem in the GUI: It appears an erroneous message about some problems in the "configuration settings". [Fixed in version 6.00.68]
Problem in the GUI: Data -> Assign Genetic Code. DnaSP does not allow to display the genetic code window. [Fixed in version 6.00.66]
Problem in the GUI: Multi-MSA Data File Analysis (All Sites) -> Introgression Analysis. DnaSP by mistake display an erroneous window (a window dealing with the Haplotype Frequency Analysis). [Fixed in version 6.00.66]
Problem in the GUI: Multi-MSA Data File Analysis (SNP Positions) -> Introgression Analysis. DnaSP by mistake display a window dealing with the introgression/admixture analysis. However this feature is not implemented yet. [Fixed in version 6.00.66]
Problem in the GUI: Interaction with the USCS genome browser. DnaSP can not interact with the browser. [Unfixed bug]
Numeric Problem. Fu and Li tests and the Overview Polymorphism Data modules. In some rare cases these modules might report erroneous results of the Fu and Li D* and F* tests. [Fixed in version 6.00.68]
Numeric Problem. Multi-MSA Data File Analysis, using a *.SG.txt file The results of the Fst values might be erroneous. [Fixed in version 6.00.66]
