[adegenet-forum] xval warning

[LAURA NICOLE WOODINGS]

Hi,

I am trying to use xval to cross-validate the number of PCs to retain for a DAPC using the below command and I am getting the following error msg:

xval_nopopbp75_cnt75_cl96_maf5to1 <- xvalDapc(nopop_bp75_cnt75_cl96_maf5to1NoNA at tab, nopop_clust$grp)

There were 50 or more warnings (use warnings() to see the first 50)
> warnings()
Warning messages:
1: In if (result == "overall") { ... :
  the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used
2: In if (result == "groupMean") { ... :
  the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used

Using find.clusters 2 groups are found but 1 group has 83 individuals and the other group has 4. Is the discrepancy in sample size causing the problem with xval? And if so how can I determine the optimal number of PC's to keep? I have attached my input file and the script that I use.

Also when conduction DAPC should you remove the NA's in the data? The DAPC seems to work when the Nas are not removed, but when I run it with them removed I get different results.

Thanks for your help!

Cheers,
Laura
