Amat.pieces: Amat.pieces

In STPGA: Selection of Training Populations by Genetic Algorithm

Description

This calculates the genomic relationship matrix using the formula in VanRaden (2008)

Usage

Amat.pieces(M, pieces=10, mc.cores=1)

Arguments

M	The matrix of markers rows rorresponding to individuals and columns for markers, the markers scores are coded as -1,0,1 (corresponding to allele counts 0,1,2).
pieces	number of chunks to split the markers
mc.cores	number of cores to use

Value

a genomic relationship matrix.

Examples

N=50
nmarkers=500
Markers<-c()
for (i in 1:N){
  Markers<-rbind(Markers,sample(-1:1,nmarkers, replace=TRUE))
}

markereffects<-rep(0,nmarkers)
markereffects[sample(1:nmarkers,nmarkers/2)]<-rnorm(nmarkers/2)
Markers[1:5,1:5]

K=Amat.pieces(Markers, pieces=5) 
K[1:5,1:5]
