In pedtools: Creating and Working with Pedigrees and Marker Data

Genotype matrix

Description

Extract the genotypes of specified individuals and markers from a pedigree object, and return them as a character matrix.

Usage

getGenotypes(x, ids = NULL, markers = NULL, sep = "/", missing = "-")

Arguments

x	A ped object or a list of such.
ids	A vector of ID labels, or a function operating on x, e.g., typedMembers(). By default (ids = NULL) all individuals are included, also non-genotyped ones.
markers	A vector of indices or names of markers attaches to x. If NULL (default) all markers are included.
sep	A single string to be used as allele separator in marker genotypes.
missing	A single string to be used for missing alleles.

Value

getGenotypes() returns a character matrix with length(ids) rows and length(markers) columns.

Examples

x = nuclearPed() |>
  addMarker(`2` = "1/2", name = "m1") |>
  addMarker(`3` = "a/a", name = "m2")

getGenotypes(x)

### A list of pedigrees

s = transferMarkers(x, singleton("s"))
peds = list(x, s)

getGenotypes(peds)

# Using a function to select individuals
getGenotypes(x, ids = typedMembers)
