The model-free method demonstrates improved ARG inference from unphased data in small samples, suggesting better topology weighting in polyploid species.
Key Points
The model-free approach for genealogical inference enables analysis from unphased genotype data.
Sequential Tree Inference by Collecting Compatible Sites accurately infers ancestral recombination graphs.
Topology weighting improves when stacking trees from multiple subsets of data without size limitations.
The presented methods enhance analysis of relatedness and introgression in non-model species, particularly polyploids.
