Identity By State Threshold

Use the field/slider to specify a threshold for reporting pairs of samples.

Pairs of rows/samples that have IBS values greater than or equal to the specified proportion of alleles that are identical by state will be reported in a data set with the suffix _prs appended.

Sample pairs will be notated using the names for the relationship similarity variables in the output data set; in other words either the user-specified Prefix or the default Prefix " IBS_ " with the sample row number appended.

If ID Variables are specified, their values will be appended to the prefix instead of the row number.

Note : If a value of 0 is entered, the output data set will not be created.

To Specify the Identity by State Threshold:

Make sure Identity by State is selected as the Relationship Matrix to Compute .

Either type the desired number of partitions into the text field, or move the slider to the right or to the left to specify a value.

Tip : To change the scale of the slider, right-click on the slider and select Rescale Slider from the pop-up menu. Change the upper and/or lower boundaries in the window that appears, to rescale the slider and click OK .
