<pre><span style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">Dear Thibaut,</span><br style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;"><br style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">I'm trying to use PCA in adegenet for a dataset of insect microsatellites. When I did replacing missing data with the mean of the corresponding alleles with</span><br style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">
<span style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">codes:</span><br style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;"><span class="description"><span style="font-family: Calibri;" lang="EN-US"><span style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">obj <- na.replace(odec1, method = "mean")</span><br style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">
<br style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: verdana,sans-serif;">It returns a value "4370".<br><br>I'm wondering what does this mean? It can't be the total number of my missing genotypes as I have around 80 ones in this datasets. Then I would like to know what this figure represent.<br>
<br>Thanks so much in advance!<br><br>Cheers<br><br>Yang<br></span></span></span></pre>
