make.population: Make a population

Description Usage Arguments

Description

Takes haploid genome information and a crossing block and produce a list of families. The function also requires the genome, the size of the families and the mutation rates.

Usage

2
3
make.population(genome, parental.haploids, crossing.block, N, cycle.number,
  generations, pop.type = "random", mutate = TRUE, mutation.rate.snp,
  mutation.rate.qtl)

Arguments

genome

The hypred genome.

parental.haploids

The complete 2n x m matrix of parent haploid genotype information.

N

The number of F_1 individuals to generate.

cycle.number

The integer number of the breeding cycle.

generations

The number of selfing generations of single-seed descent. For instance generations = 5 would results in an F_6 population. For each generation, each of the F_1 individuals results in a single new individual that has undergone an additional generation of inbreeding

pop.type

The type of population to generate. Can be "inbred" or "random" (default).

mutate

A logical as to generate random mutations when recombining.

mutation.rate.snp

The per-base mutation rate of the SNPs.

mutation.rate.qtl

The per-base mutation rate of the QTL.
