Help needed for Identity-by-Descent (IBD) Analysis for Identifying Ancestral Plant Species with iLASH #12

Open agroppi opened 6 months ago

agroppi commented 6 months ago

Here's the context: We have three plant species, namely species A, species B, and species C. Our goal is to identify the ancestral species that contributed to the development of species C. Our initial hypothesis suggests that species A and species B could be the contributors. To investigate this, we plan to conduct an identity-by-descent (IBD) analysis with iLASH

We have the following data available for the analysis:

Complete genome assemblies for the three species, A, B, and C.

An explanation of the IBD analysis process, tailored to beginners, would be greatly appreciated.

Considering the analysis I wish to perform and the available data, I have several questions:

I sincerely appreciate any help, advice, or guidance you can provide.

Thank you in advance for your valuable support!
