RAD-Seq de-novo data analysis

Abstract

In the study of Hohenlohe et al. 2010, a genome scan of nucleotide diversity and differentiation in natural populations of threespine stickleback Gasterosteus aculeatus was conducted. Authors used Illumina-sequenced RAD tags to identify and type over 45,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in each of 100 individuals from two oceanic and three freshwater populations.
