[adegenet-forum] Very different numbers in groups with same paramters using find.clusters

Hello,

I want to do a DAPC on a dataset containing 1548 SNPs starting with the find.clusters command but get wildly different numbers in each group when I repeat the command using exactly the same parameters. Does anybody have an explanation for this?

Thank you

Markus


> grp <- find.clusters(rul, max.n.clust=10)

Choose the number PCs to retain (>=1):

400

Choose the number of clusters (>=2:

3

> table(pop(rul), grp$grp)



               1   2   3

  native       2 131  52

  non-native  67   3   1

  hispanica    5   0   0

  odd         12 113  41
