Description Details Author(s) References

Description

MACAU2 is an R package for efficient differerntial analysis of large-scale RNA sequencing (RNAseq) data and Bisulfite sequencing (BSseq) data in the presence of individual relatedness and population structure. MACAU2 first fits a GLMM with adjusted covariates, predictor of interest and random effects to account for population structure and individual relatedness, and then performs wald tests for each gene in RNAseq or site for BSseq.
