HW_TEST, a program for comprehensive HARDY-WEINBERG equilibrium testing

Abstract

This article deals with a Windows (© Microsoft Inc.) executable, user-friendly program that tests the hypothesis of Hardy-Weinberg (HW) proportions from autosomal multiallelic data using different methods that include parametric, nonparametric and exact bootstrap tests, the latter obtained through computer simulations. The program can be obtained free of charge directly from the internet repository https://github.com/Lemes-RenanB/HardyWeinbergTesting.
