In sommer: Solving Mixed Model Equations in R

Create a GE correlation matrix for simulation purposes.

Description

Makes a simple correlation matrix based on the number of environments and megaenvironments desired.

Usage

simGECorMat(nEnv,nMegaEnv,mu=0.7, v=0.2, mu2=0, v2=0.3)

Arguments

nEnv	Number of environments to simulate. Needs to be divisible by the nMegaEnv argument.
nMegaEnv	Number of megaenvironments to simulate.
mu	Mean value of the genetic correlation within megaenvironments.
v	variance in the genetic correlation within megaenvironments.
mu2	Mean value of the genetic correlation between megaenvironments.
v2	variance in the genetic correlation between megaenvironments.

Details

Simple simulation of a correlation matrix for environments and megaenvironments.

Value

G the correlation matrix

$G

the correlation matrix
