DEploid

<img src="docs/_static/deploid.png" width="180">

dEploid is designed for deconvoluting mixed genomes with unknown proportions. Traditional ‘phasing’ programs are limited to diploid organisms. Our method modifies Li and Stephen’s algorithm with Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approaches, and builds a generic framework that allows haloptype searches in a multiple infection setting.

Please see the documentation for further details.

Installation

You can also install dEploid directly from the git repository. Here, you will need autoconf, check whether this is already installed by running:

$ which autoconf

On Debian/Ubuntu based systems:

$ apt-get install build-essential autoconf autoconf-archive libcppunit-dev zlib1g-dev

On Mac OS:

$ brew install automake autoconf autoconf-archive cppunit

Afterwards you can clone the code from the github repository,

$ git clone git@github.com:mcveanlab/DEploid.git
$ cd DEploid
$ git submodule update --init --recursive --remote

and build the binary using

$ ./bootstrap
$ make

Usage

Please see the documentation for further details.
