Dear all,


I'm trying to use adegenet to analyse a set of 25 lines with 540.000 markers. For the moment, I tried to use genind object as I found file format for SNP genlight object a bit difficult to create.

Everything is going well except when running
grp=find.clusters(obj, max.n.clust=40)
I get graph with cumulative variance and number of retained PC's, but whatever the number of PC I chose I get same error:
number of cluster centers must lie between 1 and nrow(x)

Any idea? Shall it be due to number of markers?

Thanks for your help

regards

Karine

Hi there, 

this question belongs more to the adegenet forum. 

Here, the error is that you are asking the function to cluster 25 individuals into 40 groups.

Cheers
