LDJump: Estimating Variable Recombination Rates from Population Genetic Data
2017-09-20
Abstract excerpt
As recombination plays an important role in evolution, its estimation, as well as, the identification of hotspot positions is of considerable interest. We propose a novel approach for estimating historical recombination along a chromosome that involves a sequential multiscale change point estimator. Our method also permits to take demography into account. It uses a composite likelihood estimate and other summary s...
