twoLocusInbreeding: Two-locus inbreeding

In magnusdv/ribd: Pedigree-based Relatedness Coefficients

Two-locus inbreeding

Description

Computes the two-locus inbreeding coefficient of a pedigree member, for a given recombination rate.

Usage

twoLocusInbreeding(x, id, rho, verbose = FALSE, debug = FALSE)

Arguments

x	A pedigree in the form of a pedtools::ped object.
id	The ID label of a pedigree member.
rho	A numeric vector of recombination rates; all entries must be in the interval [0, 0.5].
verbose	A logical.
debug	A logical. If TRUE, detailed messages are printed during the recursion process.

Details

Let A be a pedigree member, and L1, L2 two autosomal loci with recombination rate \rho. The two-locus inbreeding coefficient f_{11}(\rho) is defined as the probability that A is autozygous at both L1 and L2 simultaneously.

As in the one-locus case, the two-locus inbreeding coefficient of A equals the two-locus kinship coefficient of the parents.
