In dartR: Importing and Analysing 'SNP' and 'Silicodart' Data Generated by Genome-Wide Restriction Fragment Analysis

Subsamples n loci from a genlight object and return it as a genlight object

Description

This is a support script, to subsample a genlight {adegenet} object based on loci. Two methods are used to subsample, random and based on information content.

Usage

gl.subsample.loci(x, n, method = "random", mono.rm = FALSE, verbose = NULL)

Arguments

x	Name of the genlight object containing the SNP or presence/absence (SilicoDArT) data [required].
n	Number of loci to include in the subsample [required].
method	Method: 'random', in which case the loci are sampled at random; or 'pic', in which case the top n loci ranked on information content are chosen. Information content is stored in AvgPIC in the case of SNP data and in PIC in the the case of presence/absence (SilicoDArT) data [default 'random'].
mono.rm	Delete monomorphic loci before sampling [default FALSE].
verbose	Verbosity: 0, silent or fatal errors; 1, begin and end; 2, progress log; 3, progress and results summary; 5, full report [default 2 or as specified using gl.set.verbosity].

Value

A genlight object with n loci
