Hi @DrK-Lo , @casalott and @whitlock , I'd like to find outlier of my Fst calculated by sliding-windows , and an issue appears that a window include many genotypes of many snps, it's hardly to difine a value like 0,1 or 2 to generate an input file for OutFLANK. So how could I create this input file? Thanks in advances, Yung

Hi Yung,

OutFLANK isn’t designed (or suitable) for use on Fst calculated from sliding windows. The distribution of Fst from sliding windows is not a chi square as assumed by OutFLANK. So unfortunately I’d say it is unwise to try to use it for this case.
