  • Constrained ordination with SNP data

    I have a genome-wide SNP dataset from RADseq containing 100 individuals from 4 groups. I converted the data so that it's in the form of a matrix (columns are SNPs, rows are individuals).
    I'd like to use a constrained ordination (like a discriminant function) analysis in which I use the individuals from 2 of the 4 total groups to infer the axis that best separates these 2 groups across all SNPs. I then want to predict, along this axis, the position of the individuals of the other two groups.
    I can easily convert the current SNP matrix into a numeric count matrix, such as by recoding, at each SNP, homozygous genotypes for allele A as 0, homozygous genotypes for the alternative allele B as 2, and heterozygous genotypes as 1.

    My question is: what type of constrained ordination is appropriate for this type of data and goal? I'd like to do this in R.

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
