Accuracy of jointly inferred rates of clonality and selfing with
increasing ploidy
ClonEstiMatePoly, the Bayesian method we propose here to
jointly infer rates of clonality, selfing and allogamy in autopolyploid
populations genotyped at two-time step showed high accuracy and limited
confusion to jointly infer the true rates of clonality and selfing. The
method inferred in the worst cases the true joint rates of clonality and
selfing with a precision of ±0.2 (Fig. S6). It occurred when populations
reproduced using both intermediate rates of clonality and rates of
selfing. Increasing ploidy showed a slight tendency to overestimate
selfing rates when populations also reproduced using intermediate rates
of clonality.
