isoRelate: software for inferring pairwise identity by descent in haploid species

Features

• Estimates the proportion of genome shared IBD between pairs of isolates
• Detects genomic regions that are identical by descent (IBD) between pairs of isolates
• Allows IBD detection in isolates with multiple infections
• Identifies genomic loci under positive selection
• Creates networks of related isolates
• Includes multiple graphical functions to explore the results
