In betafam: Detecting rare variants for quantitative traits using nuclear families

Description

The expectation and variance are calculated with respect to parental genotypes at a single marker under the null distribution of parental random transmission using Mendel's laws.

Usage

call.moment(father,mother)  

Arguments

father	indicates the father's genotype, coded as 0, 1 and 2.
mother	indicates the mother's genotype, coded as 0, 1 and 2.

Value

mean	expecation of the offspring's genotype.
var	variance of the offspring's genotype.
