sim_homologous: Simulate homology groups

In mappoly: Genetic Linkage Maps in Autopolyploids

Simulate homology groups

Description

Simulate two homology groups (one for each parent) and their linkage phase configuration.

Usage

sim_homologous(ploidy, n.mrk, prob.dose = NULL, seed = NULL)

Arguments

ploidy	ploidy level. Must be an even number
n.mrk	number of markers
prob.dose	a vector indicating the proportion of markers for different dosage to be simulated (default = NULL)
seed	random number generator seed

Details

This function prevents the simulation of linkage phase configurations which are impossible to estimate via two point methods

Value

a list containing the following components:

hom.allele.p	a list of vectors containing linkage phase configurations. Each vector contains the numbers of the homologous chromosomes in which the alleles are located. For instance, a vector containing (1,3,4) means that the marker has three doses located in the chromosomes 1, 3 and 4. For zero doses, use 0
p	contains the indices of the starting positions of the dosages, considering that the vectors contained in p are concatenated. Markers with no doses (zero doses are also considered)
hom.allele.q	Analogously to hom.allele.p
q	Analogously to p
ploidy	ploidy level
