The Web based program assigns test individuals according to their genotypes or metric traits to groups (e.g. country of origin, population of origin) which are defined by reference individuals. Thus, the user needs to upload one data file for the test individuals (“Test file”) and one data file for the reference individuals (“Reference file”). The assignment is done using a nearest neighbour approach.

The program has been published at: Degen B, Blanc-Jolivet C, Stierand K, Gillet E (2017) A nearest neighbour approach by genetic distance to the assignment of individual trees to geographic origin. Forensic Sci Int Genetics 27:132-141, DOI:10.1016/j.fsigen.2016.12.011
