Dear Chris and all,


As far as I know the default value for --rel-cutoff is 0.025 for getting unrelated individuals. Could you please let me know this value is correspond to which degree of relationship or pihat?



Thanks

I will instead answer the question you asked on Biostars (“how do I prune second-degree-related samples?”)

“plink2 —bfile ... —king-cutoff 0.088 —make-bed” should work. See https://www.cog-genomics.org/plink/2.0/distance#make_king (and the KING website/paper) for documentation re: kinship values.

—rel-cutoff is obsolete.
