So here is my problem: I've been reading the literature on RADseq to get population allele frequencies. I'm thinking of using pooled sampling for cost-efficiency. However, I can't seem to find any answers that make sense to me as to how allele frequencies are calculated from pooled data!
I came across papers which appeared to use read counts at a position as proxies for allele frequencies... but this makes me kind of uncomfortable! Most RADseq studies that seem to be individually sequenced.
I have read Gautier et al. 2013, but they seem to just use allele counts too.
Help?
