Abstract
The advent of genome-wide ancient DNA analysis has revolutionized our understanding of prehistoric societies. However, studying biological relatedness in these groups requires tailored approaches due to the challenges of analyzing ancient DNA. READv2, an optimized Python3 implementation of the most widely used tool for this purpose, addresses these challenges while surpassing its predecessor in speed and accuracy. For sufficient amounts of data, it can classify up to third-degree relatedness and differentiate between the two types of first-degree relatedness, full siblings and parent-offspring. READv2 enables user-friendly, efficient, and nuanced analysis of biological relatedness, facilitating a deeper understanding of past social structures.
全基因组古 DNA 分析的出现彻底改变了我们对史前社会的认识。然而，由于分析古 DNA 所面临的挑战，研究这些群体的生物亲缘关系需要量身定制的方法。READv2 是最广泛使用的工具在 Python3 上的优化实现，它在速度和准确性上都超越了前者，从而解决了这些难题。在数据量足够大的情况下，它可以对三等亲缘关系进行分类，并区分两类一等亲缘关系（全同胞和亲子）。READv2 可以对生物亲缘关系进行用户友好、高效和细致的分析，从而促进对过去社会结构的深入了解。
