Analyse the position of polymorphic sites
These functions are used to describe the distribution of polymorphic sites (SNPs) in an alignment.
The function snpposi.plot
plots the positions and density of
SNPs in the alignment.
The function snpposi.test
tests whether SNPs are randomly
distributed in the genome, the alternative hypothesis being that they
are clustered. This test is based on the distances of each SNP to the
closest SNP. This provides one measure of clustering for each SNP.
Different statistics can be used to summarise these values (argument
stat
), but by default the statistics used is the median.
snpposi.plot
and snpposi.test
are generic functions with
methods for vectors of integers or numeric (indicating SNP position),
and for DNAbin
objects.

x |
a vector of integers or numerics containing SNP positions, or
a set of aligned sequences in a |
genome.size |
an integer indicating the length of genomes. |
smooth |
a smoothing parameter for the density estimation; smaller values will give more local peaks; values have to be positive but can be less than 1. |
col |
the color to be used for the plot; ignored if codon positions are represented. |
alpha |
the alpha level to be used for transparency (density curve). |
codon |
a logical indicating if codon position should be indicated (TRUE, default) or not. |
start.at |
an integer indicating at which base of a codon the alignment starts (defaults to 1); values other than 1, 2 and 3 will be ignored. |
n.sim |
an integer indicating the number of randomizations to be used in the Monte Carlo test. |
stat |
a function used to summarize the measure of physical proximity between SNPs; by default, the median is used. |
