Structure Harvester

Structure Harvester parses the output of Pritchard's Structure program, applies the Evanno ΔK method to help detect the number of clusters, and can optionally emit CLUMPP-compatible indfiles and popfiles.

Available

  • Roihu: 0.7, via the bio-apps module.

Usage

Structure Harvester is part of the bio-apps collection on Roihu. Load the bio-apps module tree and then the module:

module load bio-apps/v202603
module load structureharvester/0.7

Run structureHarvester.py on a directory of Structure result files:

structureHarvester.py --dir=structure_results --out=harvester_out --evanno --clumpp

Structure Harvester is often used as part of an automated Structure workflow — see StrAuto, which runs it as part of its post-processing.
