Introduction

The example is split into 2 Parts:

Part 1 must be completed first to create a file, SNPs_cleaned.csv, that has been completely prepared for analysis.

Now in Part 2, you will analyze the data with PCA. The steps here will be:

  1. Center the data (scale())
  2. Run a PCA analysis (prcomp())
  3. Evaluate the scree plot from the PCA (screeplot())
  4. Evaluate the amount of variation explained by the first 2 PCs.
  5. Extract the PCA scores for plotting (vegan::scores())
  6. Plot the data

Tasks

In the code below all code is provided. Your tasks will be to do 4 things:

  1. Give a meaningful title to all sections marked “TODO: TITLE”
  2. Write 1 to 2 sentences describing what is being done and why in all sections marked “TODO: EXPLAIN”
  3. Add titles and axes to plots in all sections marked “TODO: UPDATE PLOT”
  4. Write 1 or 2 sentences interpreting the output from R in all sections marked “TODO: INTERPRET”

Preliminaries

Load the vcfR package with library()

library(vcfR) # KEY
## 
##    *****       ***   vcfR   ***       *****
##    This is vcfR 1.13.0 
##      browseVignettes('vcfR') # Documentation
##      citation('vcfR') # Citation
##    *****       *****      *****       *****
library(vegan)
## Loading required package: permute
## Loading required package: lattice
## This is vegan 2.6-4
library(ggplot2)
library(ggpubr)

Set the working directory

getwd()
## [1] "/Users/omchauhan/Documents"
list.files(pattern = "cleaned")
## [1] "SNPs_cleaned.csv"

Load the data

SNPs_cleaned <- read.csv(file = "SNPs_cleaned.csv")
