het: Heterosis and Heterobeltiosis

In EstimateBreed: Estimation of Environmental Variables and Genetic Parameters

Heterosis and Heterobeltiosis

Description

Calculation of heterosis and heterobeltiosis parameters of hybrids

Usage

het(GEN, GM, GP, PR, REP, param = "all", verbose = FALSE)

Arguments

GEN	The column with the genotype name
GM	The column with the average of the maternal parent
GP	The column with the average of the paternal parent
PR	The column with the average of the progeny
REP	The column with the repetitions (if exists)
param	Value to determine the parameter to be calculated. Default is 'all'. To calculate heterosis only, use 'het'. To calculate only heterobeltiosis, use 'hetb'.
verbose	Logical argument. Runs the code silently if FALSE.

Value

Returns heterosis values based on the performance of the tested parents and progenies. The standard error (SE) is also reported for each parameter.

Examples

library(EstimateBreed)

data("maize")
#Extract heterosis and heterobeltiosis
general <- with(maize,het(GEN,GM,GP,PR,REP,param="all"))

#Only extract heterosis
het <- with(maize,het(GEN,GM,GP,PR,REP,param = "het"))

#Extract only heterobeltiosis
hetb <- with(maize,het(GEN,GM,GP,PR,REP,param = "hetb"))
