For this meeting, please come with an example (or examples) of a source of systematic error in datasets, and a paper that attempts to address this source of systematic error. We will use these examples and papers as a basis for discussions in upcoming weeks.

Since cichlids came up last week, it may be fun to read a cichlid RAD-seq paper:

Here is a link to a supplementary paper folks may be interested in for an overview of the applications of RAD-sequencing (or at least those conceived of thus far):

Here is a link to a protocol for RAD-seq library prep, just in case anyone is interested:

Finally, here is a PowerPoint concatenation of a few figures from various papers laying out how the RAD-seq process works.
