Program installation
You can download the adequate version of HacDivSel from the download menu at the left. The zip file includes the manual of the program jointly with the executables for Windows and Ubuntu and the source code with a Makefile for compilation for linux/MAC users. From the sources folder, the user can compile and install all source codes needed to run HacDivSel just by typing "make" from the linux console.
Program overview
HaCDivSel is a computer program designed to find signals of natural selection in the genome of populations that share polymorphisms. It combines haplotypic pattern information with population differentiation information and can be a useful tool for exploring divergent selection patterns when approximate knowledge of haplotype phase is available. Alternatively, HacDivSel also includes the EOS method, which is a useful outlier test when SNPs are independent.

 

The new, forthcoming version 1.5 also includes a haplotype-based method specifically dedicated to selection detection when a priori information on candidate sites is available

 


HacDivSel requires a sequence file. By default it accepts the ms format but Fasta, FastPhase, HapMap phased are also accepted as haplotype input files. In addition, Genepop, BayeScan and PLINK (MAP/PED) formats are accepted as files for outlier analysis.
