  • Clustering a two-D matrix

    Hii All,

    I have generated a 2-D matrix based on NGS data which has cog scores in one axis (Y-axis) and sample no in other axis. Now i want to cluster this matrix based on the cog scores to find similarity between different sampling points and finally construct a UPGMA tree based on the output. Can any one suggest me a simple way to do this?? I don't have much knowledge about this...

    Thanks for any help in advance...

    Regards

    Chayan

    Try MEGA: http://megasoftware.net/

    You should read the manual first to see if this would be appropriate to do with the dataset you have.

      You can use the Mclust package.

      (http://www.stat.washington.edu/mclust/)

      Change the parameter modelNames to obtain a suitable model (e.g., EII).

        thanks to both of you. As i am going through both the manuals, it will take some time as i am a hardcore biology guy, i want to clear one my query.. my matrix structure is like this
        A B C D E
        i 20 30 15 43 87
        ii 12 54 3 76 56
        iii 45 78 4 99 54

        now i want to cluster this based on the A, B, C, D, E based on the values of i, ii and iii...can i use "beta_diversity.py" from the qiime package..? then dont know basically how to generate to file format required for this as the prior steps are not same...


        thanks

          thanks.. but i have never used R also... what i understand from the Mclust manual, if my matrix is like this

          A B C D E
          i 20 30 15 43 87
          ii 12 54 3 76 56
          iii 45 78 4 99 54

          i should use the modelName "VII"/"VVV" or other unequal volume or varying volume from the multivariate mixture??

          another thing, how to prepare the input file from the excel to feed into mclust??

          thanks a lot

            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...
