Using sliding window to run admixtools to detect unusual regions #16

Hi,

There are many examples using sliding windows to detect introgression regions using D statistic. So, I wander that, could I run qp3Pop to detect introgression regions with sliding windows? If so, does qp3Pop have more power to detect introgression regions compared to D_statistic?

Thanks!

You can try this but LD will often be a problem. A highly relevant paper is https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4271521/

I have not much experience here.
