Excited to read this, I've been worried about the recurrence of these peaks in #PSMC graphs for years. Also, just on time before we submit one (a first for me). #PopulationGenetics #PopulationGenomics #MethodsMatter

(If Mastodon doesn't show the Bluesky post: "Avoidable false PSMC population size peaks occur across numerous studies" https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cub.2024.09.028)

Really had to read this article for my current project:

Raynaud et al. 2023 “Performance and limitations of linkage-disequilibrium-based methods for inferring the genomic landscape of recombination and detecting hotspots: a simulation study”

I innocently asked why we apply this specific Hardy-Weinberg p-value cutoff as a prefilter step on a whole genome sequencing dataset (prior to population analyses), and now after reading several papers I am still totally unsure of the recommended procedure... I guess I should simply choose a very (very) low cutoff to minimize the number of false positives and just move on.

What's your method?

Hi people, just a personal update: I'm starting a new job as bioinformatician about the population genomics of horses, donkeys and relatives, involving ancient DNA.
Looking forward to sharing some experience with you!

A great way to kickstart my #Mastodon migration from #twitter With a Preprint
Led by @Georgette_F from her bachelor thesis at @lcgunam. She generated 130+ years old and modern whole-genomes of the (previously) endangered Seychelles paradise flycatcher. We used #PopulationGenomics , demographic reconstructions and fwd simulations to study their genetic load and adaptive potential over time. We ask how this species avoided #extinction and recovered.

A lot of software can provide genotype likelihood for a #WGS #NGS sample, only one I know provide the likelihood of ALL 10 genotypes for a site, i.e. ANGSD.

Anyone knows any software that calculate all allele likelihood for a site? So I wanna know the probability of observing allele A, C, G, and T in a site. The ones I found only provide probability of one allele (consensus/random).
