)

Arguments

keep_individuals

[character] Path to file with individuals to be retained in the analysis. The file has to be a space/tab-delimited text file with family IDs in the first column and within-family IDs in the second column. All samples not listed in this file will be removed from the current analysis. See https://www.cog-genomics.org/plink/1.9/filter#indiv. Default: NULL, i.e. no filtering on individuals.

remove_individuals

[character] Path to file with individuals to be removed from the analysis. The file has to be a space/tab-delimited text file with family IDs in the first column and within-family IDs in the second column. All samples listed in this file will be removed from the current analysis. See https://www.cog-genomics.org/plink/1.9/filter#indiv. Default: NULL, i.e. no filtering on individuals.

extract_markers

[character] Path to file with makers to be included in the analysis. The file has to be a text file with a list of variant IDs (usually one per line, but it's okay for them to just be separated by spaces). All unlisted variants will be removed from the current analysis. See https://www.cog-genomics.org/plink/1.9/filter#snp. Default: NULL, i.e. no filtering on markers.

exclude_markers

[character] Path to file with makers to be removed from the analysis. The file has to be a text file with a list of variant IDs (usually one per line, but it's okay for them to just be separated by spaces). All listed variants will be removed from the current analysis. See https://www.cog-genomics.org/plink/1.9/filter#snp. Default: NULL, i.e. no filtering on markers.

Value

Vector containing args in sys::exec_wait format to enable filtering on individuals and/or markers.
