Resumen:
We present bammds, a practical tool that allows visualization of samples sequenced by 2nd generation sequencing when compared to a reference panel of individuals (usually genotypes) using a multidimensional scaling (MDS) algorithm. Our tool is aimed at determining the ancestry of unknown samples - typical of ancient DNA (aDNA) data - particularly when only low amounts of data are available for those samples.
