The purpose of this repository is to introduce researchers in Neafsey Lab in the analysis of genotyping information generated through amplicon sequencing (also called Microhaplotype genotyping).

This covers 8 tutorials:

Our GitHub repository contains a set of functions that allows the user to upload and manipulate the genotypic information stored in .tsv tables (in CIGAR format) that has been generated by the malaria-amplicon-pipeline of our lab. All those functions and the required libraries are in the R scripts amplseq_functions.R and amplseq_required_libraries.R, and an additional set of Rcpp functions for the estimation of IBD and eigenvectors are in the files hmmloglikelihood.cpp and Rcpp_functions.cpp. Some of the functions require additional input files such as fasta files for reference strains or tables of alleles associated with drug resistance. These additional information is stored in the folder doc/reference.

The AMPLseq and PvGTSeq tutorials have been created to introduce the final users to all the set of functions in this repository, while the Intro to MHap-Analysis pipeline tutorial shows how to generate automated reports. To run these tutorials data sets are stored in the folder doc/data. The samples for these tutorials comes from a collaboration with the groups of Caucaseco in Colombia, Stella Chenet in Peru, and David Forero in Venezuela.
