BayeScan 2.1 is now officially released, allowing parallel computing
on multicore machine, leading to much faster calculation. This version
can also calculate q-value, a very useful measure of significance in
the context of multiple testing. |

BayeScan
2.0 is now officially released, implementing the new model for AFLP
amplification intensity data developed at CMPG
lab and supported by the Swiss National Science Foundation (grant No 3100A0-112072). Many other improvements are
included, click "versions" section. The fist paper presenting and using it can be found here: Fischer
MC, Foll M, Excoffier L and G Heckel (2011) Enhanced AFLP genome
scans detect local adaptation in high-altitude populations of a small
rodent (Microtus arvalis). Molecular Ecology 20: 1450-1462

Andrés
Pérez-Figueroa and his colleagues compared three different methods
to detect selective loci using dominant markers (BayeScan, DFdist and DelSel).
Details can be found in their publication but the main conclusion is summarized
in this sentence taken from the abstract: "Under a wide range of scenarios, we
conclude that bayescan appears to be more efficient than the other
methods, detecting a usually high percentage of true selective loci as
well as less than 1% of outliers (false positives) under a fully
neutral model. In addition, the percentage of outliers detected by this
software is always correlated with the true percentage of selective
loci in the genome."

BayeScan has been
integrated in the BioHPC
computer cluster application at Cornell University (CBSU). This
means that you can simply use it from your favorite web browser at this
