The package smartsnp runs fast and user-friendly computation of Principal Component Analysis (PCA) on single-nucleotide-polymorphism (SNP) data suitable for ancient, low-coverage and modern DNA. The package combines SNP scaling for genetic drift and projection of ancient samples onto a modern genetic PCA space (currently available only in Unix environment in the field-standard software EIGENSOFT) with permutation-based multivariate tests for population differences in genetic diversity (both location and dispersion). The package comprises three functions that run each analysis individually (smart_pca, smart_permanova, smart_permdisp), and a wrapper function (smart_mva) that runs any combination of the three standalone functions.
You can install the released version of smartsnp from CRAN with:
install.packages("smartsnp")
This is an example of how to run PCA, PERMANOVA and PERMDISP controlling for genetic drift for the package’s dataset dataSNP including 10000 simulated SNPs in 100 samples (80 = modern, 20 = ancient).
#1/ Load package and label samples
library(smartsnp)
# Path to example genotype matrix "dataSNP"
= system.file("extdata", "dataSNP", package = "smartsnp")
pathToGenoFile #assign 50 samples to each of two groups
<- c(rep("A", 50), rep("B", 50))
my_groups #assign samples 1st to 10th per group to ancient
<- c(1:10, 51:60)
my_ancient
#2/ Run PCA with truncated SVD (PCA 1 x PCA 2 axes) and assign results to object pcaR
<- smart_pca(snp_data = pathToGenoFile, sample_group = my_groups, sample_project = my_ancient)
pcaR #assign statistical results to objects pcaR_eigen, pcaR_load and pcaR_coord
<- pcaR$pca.eigenvalues; dim(pcaR_eigen) # extract eigenvalues
pcaR_eigen #> [1] 3 2
<- pcaR$pca.snp_loadings; dim(pcaR_load) # extract principal coefficients (SNP loadings)
pcaR_load #> [1] 4532 2
<- pcaR$pca.sample_coordinates; dim(pcaR_coord) # extract principal components (sample position in PCA space)
pcaR_coord #> [1] 100 4
#3/ Run PERMANOVA test (group location in PCA1 x PCA2 space after excluding ancient samples) and assign results to object permanovaR
<- smart_permanova(snp_data = pathToGenoFile, sample_group = my_groups, target_space = "pca", sample_remove = my_ancient)
permanovaR #assign sample summary to object permP
<- permanovaR$permanova.samples

#4/ Run PERMDISP test (group dispersion in PCA1 x PCA2 space after excluding ancient samples) and assign results to object permdispR

#NOTE 1: Modify argument pc_axes to set the number of computed PCA axes (defaults: pc_axes = 2, program_svd = "RSpectra")
#use program_svd = "bootSVD" for computing all PCA axes, where pc_axes has no effect on computations
#NOTE 2: Missing values in dataset can only be coded as 9 (default: missing_value = 9) or NA (missing_value = NA)
#SNPs with missing values are removed by default (missing_impute = "remove")
#use missing_impute = "mean" for imputing missing values with SNP means
#NOTE 3: arguments sample_remove and snp_remove remove any set of samples (by column number) and SNPs (by row number), respectively
#defaults: sample_remove = FALSE, snp_remove = FALSE
#NOTE 4: use argument sample_project to specify ancient samples by row number (default: sample_project = FALSE)
#ancient samples are assumed to include missing values
#if specified, ancient samples are always removed from PCA, PERMANOVA and PERMDISP computations
#use argument pc_project to set the PCA space onto which ancient samples are projected (default: pc_project = c(1:2) for PCA 1 x PCA2 space)
#6/ Plot PCA 1 x PCA 2
#create colors for samples groups

cols #create color vector (group A = red, group B = blue, ancient samples = black)
