IRiS: Construction of ARG networks at genomic scales

Abstract

Given a set of extant haplotypes IRiS first detects high confidence recombination events in their shared genealogy. Next using the local sequence topology defined by each detected event, it integrates these recombinations into an ancestral recombination graph. While the current system has been calibrated for human population data, it is easily extendible to other species as well. © The Author 2011. Published by Oxford University Press. All rights reserved.
