pcadapt has been developed to detect genetic markers involved in biological adaptation. pcadapt provides statistical tools for outlier detection based on Principal Component Analysis (PCA).
To run the package, you can install it from CRAN:
install.packages("pcadapt")
library(pcadapt)
A tutorial for pcadapt is available. To access to the vignette, type the following command in your R console:
