[adegenet-forum] Combining mtDNA and Nuclear Data for find.clusters() and DAPC

[Mac Campbell]

Hi,

I have searched for an answer to this, but haven't found one.  Would someone
be able to help me the following?

I have two data sets, mitochondrial and nuclear.  I have created two Genind
objects (X and Y, pasted below) with the same individuals in the same order.

Is it reasonable to combine the two data sets for use in find.clusters() and
DAPC?  Is there a way to combine two genind objects within adegenet easily?
I've tried several general approaches for S4 objects.

Thanks in advance,

Mac
