Over the years I have posted periodic tutorials on how to do some simple admixture analysis. Initially this was to foster the growth of “genome blogging”, but that’s basically dead along with blogging as a whole (Eurogenes being the primary exception here).

But, unexpectedly it turns out a lot of baby-academics find my tutorials early in graduate school or when they are trying to transition into ancestry inference in population genetics. I have lots of scripts I use myself, but they are not too organized or clear to others. But, I did create two tutorials for simple pipelines that are useful to others, judging by how many emails I get.

The reason I get emails is occasionally I delete the scripts in the process of housekeeping…but I’ve now created a folder “tutorials” that I will make sure NOT to delete. So all the files are present below at the links now:

– Tutorial To Run PCA, Admixture, Treemix And Pairwise Fst In One Command

– Tutorial To Run Supervised Admixture Analyses

In the near future, I’m going to clean up and post more scripts (e.g., some I use to make qpAdmin outputs earlier). But I will update this particular blog post since I think these posts are more useful/relevant for people doing web searches than regular readers.
