[adegenet-forum] glPlot: which sample is used as the reference?

[Yan Hou]

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your reply! I am sorry, but I might do not describe my 
question clearly.

My question is: which sequence was chosen as the reference when using 
the glPlot?

The plot implies the existence of a reference sequence (i.e. a missing 
site in relation to what? A SNP in relation to what?), right?

Cheers,

Yan
