[adegenet-forum] How to code dominant markers in tetraploids?

Dear Dr. Jombart,

I have a dataset containing SSRs evaluated as presence/absence markers 
in tetraploids.

The tutorial describes how to use PA data in haploid individuals, where 
each allele is coded like a single marker. Is there any difference in 
coding the data, if I use ploidy=4 or is the ploidy obsolete for PA markers?

Thanks in advance.

Torsten
