2d SFS Estimation

From angsd

Angsd can estimate a 2d site frequency spectrum. This is an extension of the 1d site frequency spectrum method. Never versions of ANGSD can estimate even higher dimensions (upto 4)

And is best explained by a full example.

Example

  • Assume you have a 12 bamfiles for population in the file pop1.list
  • Assume you have a 14 bamfiles for population in the file pop2.list
  • Assume you have a fastafile containing the ancestral state in the anc.fa

Let's start by finding the positions for which we have data in population1 and population2

# as always you can add -minMapQ 1 and -minQ 20 to only keep high quality data.
angsd -GL 1 -b pop1.list -anc anc.fa -r chr1: -P 10 -out pop1 -doSaf 1
angsd -GL 1 -b pop2.list -anc anc.fa -r chr1: -P 10 -out pop2 -doSaf 1

If we were interested in estimating the 1d sfs for each population we could do it like this using the realSFS program. (See more on page )

#sfs for pop1
realSFS pop1.saf.idx -P 24 >pop1.saf.sfs
#sfs for pop2
realSFS pop2.saf.idx -P 24 >pop2.saf.sfs
#2d sfs for pop1 and pop2
#first argument is saf file,  -P 24 is the number of cores we want to use
realSFS pop1.saf.idx pop2.saf.idx -P 24
And we now estimate the joint site frequency spectra by using the realSFS program
The output is then located in a nice matrix format(25x29) in the file: 2dsfs.sfs. Good luck visualising it, some people are using dadi, we have been using heat maps in R.
