[adegenet-forum] Different scatterplots each time (DAPC scatterplot)

[Kaitlin Marie Watt]

Hello,

 I’ve made a DAPC scatterplot using my microsatellite genotypes. However, when I run through the exact same code with the exact same parameters (No. clusters, No. of retained PCs, No. DFs), I get slightly different scatterplots each time (however, they are all similar in that none of them show much differentiation between clusters). Is this to be expected? And would someone please be able to explain (statistically) why I am getting slightly different results each time?

 

Thank you in advance!
