Genetic Relatedness Between Polyclonal Infections

v1.5.0 · Nov 10, 2025 · MIT + file LICENSE

Description

An implementation of Dcifer (Distance for complex infections: fast estimation of relatedness), an identity by descent (IBD) based method to calculate genetic relatedness between polyclonal infections from biallelic and multiallelic data. The package includes functions that format and preprocess the data, implement the method, and visualize the results. Gerlovina et al. (2022) <doi:10.1093/genetics/iyac126>.
