In gap: Genetic Analysis Package

Kinship coefficient and genetic index of familiality

Description

Kinship coefficient and genetic index of familiality

Usage

gif(data, gifset)

Arguments

data	the trio data of a pedigree.
gifset	a subgroup of pedigree members.

Details

The genetic index of familality is defined as the mean kinship between all pairs of individuals in a set multiplied by 100,000. Formally, it is defined in \insertCitegholami94gap as

100,000 \times \frac{2}{n(n-1)}\sum_{i=1}^{n-1}\sum_{j=i+1}^n k_{ij}

where n is the number of individuals in the set and k_{ij} is the kinship coefficient between individuals i and j.

The scaling is purely for convenience of presentation.

Value

The returned value is a list containing:

• gifval the genetic index of familiarity.

Note

Adapted from gif.c, testable with -Dexecutable as standalone program, which can be use for any pair of indidivuals
