[adegenet-forum] supplementary individuals

[Jombart, Thibaut]

There is a function 'repool' to do what you need (see ?repool). If A and B are two geninds with different alleles, then it merges the datasets together to have matching alleles and dimensions.

Dropping the locus is possible here indeed, but that's a potentially big loss of information if it is informative in the training set - this locus alone could define the most likely group assignment.

Cheers
Thibaut

Thanks Thibault!

Not sure what you mean about the repool. All individuals in the supplementary are fixed ‘0202’. My initial reaction was to simply drop this locus from both datasets and re-run the DAPC – what’s the easiest way to tell adegenet to omit a locus?

Best,
Mark

Hi Mark

I think you identified the problem. genind object keep only polymorphic sites.

You would need to 'repool' your supplementary individuals to make sure loci/alleles match, and then just extract the relevant individuals for the prediction.

Makes sense?

Hi Thibault,

I am trying to use the pred.sup function to assign ‘test’ individuals against my baseline data. Both baseline and supplementary individuals files load fine in adegenet but when I run the pred.sup function I get the following:

Error in predict.dapc(dapc1, newdata=sup):
                Number of variables in newdata does not match original data.


Looking at the dataframes, the baseline says it’s a matrix of 1800 x 70 (which I expect), however the supplementary says 69 for the latter(?). I have found that when  interrogating @loc.fac for the supplementary file, locus27 is only listed once, while all others are listed 2x. Perhaps a coincidence but this locus is the only one that is monomorphic  in the supplementary individuals but it is polymorphic in the baseline – would this have any effect?

Suggestions?

Thanks,
Mark
