van Hintum T  (2007). Data resolution: a jackknife procedure for determining the consistency of molecular marker datasets. Theoretical and Applied Genetics 115 (3):343–349. (DOI: 10.1007/s00122-007-0566-5).

The results of genetic diversity studies using molecular markers not only depend on the biology of the studied objects but also on the quality of the marker data. Poor data quality may hamper the correct answering of biological questions. A new statistic is proposed to estimate the quality of a marker data set with regard to its ability to describe the structure of the biological material under study. This statistic is called data resolution (DR). It is calculated by splitting a marker data set at random into two sets each with half the number of markers. In each set, similarities between all pairs of objects are calculated.
