fourParentPedigreeSingleFunnel: Generate a four-parent pedigree

In mpMap2: Genetic Analysis of Multi-Parent Recombinant Inbred Lines

Description

Generate a four-parent pedigree starting from inbred founders, using a single funnel

Usage

fourParentPedigreeSingleFunnel(
  initialPopulationSize,
  selfingGenerations,
  nSeeds = 1L,
  intercrossingGenerations
)

Arguments

initialPopulationSize	The number of F1 lines generated
selfingGenerations	The number of selfing generations at the end of the pedigree
nSeeds	The number of progeny taken from each intercrossing line, or from each F1 if no intercrossing is specified. These lines are then selfed according to selfingGenerations
intercrossingGenerations	The number of generations of intercrossing, after each F2 line is generated.

Details

Note that unlike fourParentPedigreeRandomFunnels, there is no intercrossing allowed in the single funnel case because the relevant haplotype probabilities assume randomly chosen funnels

Value

An object of class detailedPedigree representing the experimental design, suitable for simulation using simulateMPCross.
