LFMM

LFMM website

LFMM can be used for screening genomes for signatures of environmental adaptation in genomes (but it can be used for other types of GWAS). LFMM estimates confounders when identifying genetic polymorphisms that exhibit correlation with environmental gradients or other variables like phenotypic traits. The confounders - or latent factors - are then included in a statistical model for testing association between genotypes and the variable of interest.
