“…For example, the settings best suited for inferring ROHs in a small, long-isolated population experiencing high levels of inbreeding would not be suitable for individuals sampled from a large, genetically diverse population because underlying sources of error in these two scenarios are very different (e.g., differences in ROH length distributions, numbers of variable sites, expected minor allele frequencies; Ceballos, Joshi, Clark, Ramsay, & Wilson, 2018). While some studies include comparisons of results from multiple programs or parameter value combinations (e.g., Saremi et al, 2019;Grossen, Guillaume, Keller, & Croll, 2020;von Seth et al, 2021;Mueller et al, 2022), many more studies rely on default settings and do not explore the effects of varying these parameter values on their results. Without extensive knowledge of a population's demographic history (e.g., prevalence and degree of consanguineous mating or immigration), it can be challenging to determine the most appropriate combination of parameter values, and it is always impossible to know how close the resulting estimates approximate reality.…”
