Description Usage Arguments Value

Description

Function to combine two data sets which have the same pedigree and genetic lines, but different (potentially overlapping) marker data.

Usage

1
mpadd(mpcross1, mpcross2, gpu)

Arguments

mpcross1

First of the two objects to be combined

mpcross2

Second of the two objects to be combined

gpu

Should a GPU be used to do any required recombination fraction calculations, if available. Defaults to FALSE.

Value

An object of class mpcross

If recombination fractions have been calculated for either of the input objects, the recombination fractions will also be calculated, for all the markers in the final object. Similarly, if LD has been calculated for either of the input objects, LD will be calculated for all markers in the final object. Previous calculations are re-used in the process, so this is much more efficient than discarding the recombination fraction / LD data from both objects and recomputing again.
