grmsem: Genetic-Relationship-Matrix Structural Equation Modelling (GRMSEM)

Quantitative genetics tool supporting the modelling of multivariate genetic variance structures in quantitative data. It allows fitting different models through multivariate genetic-relationship-matrix (GRM) structural equation modelling (SEM) in unrelated individuals, using a maximum likelihood approach. Specifically, it combines genome-wide genotyping information, as captured by GRMs, with twin-research-based SEM techniques, St Pourcain et al.
