Population assignment probabilities

This function takes one individual and estimates their probability of coming from individual populations from multilocus genotype frequencies.

Usage

utils.assignment(x, unknown, verbose = 2)

Arguments

x

Name of the genlight object containing the SNP data [required].

unknown

Name of the individual to be assigned to a population [required].

verbose

Verbosity: 0, silent or fatal errors; 1, begin and end; 2, progress log; 3, progress and results summary; 5, full report [default 2, unless specified using gl.set.verbosity].

Value

A data.frame consisting of assignment probabilities for each population.

Details

This function is a re-implementation of the function multilocus_assignment from package gstudio. Description of the method used in this function can be found at: https://dyerlab.github.io/applied_population_genetics/population-assignment.html
