#' @description Functions in this package allow one to perform statistical analyses
#'  to map quantitative trait locus for geometric morphometric data
#' @details Geometric morphometrics defines shape as a multivariate trait. Gene pleiotropy on landmark coordinates is the underlying genetic model by definition and multivariate methods are required to map QTL. The package provides Haley-Knott mapping for shape data derived from other R packages: \code{\link[geomorph]{geomorph}}, \code{\link[Morpho]{Morpho}}, \code{\link[Momocs]{Momocs}} or other open source softwares for geometric morphometrics : e.g., \code{\link['http://www.flywings.org']{MorphoJ}}, and for genotype probabilities derived from specific packages depending on the type of crosses (for example \code{\link[qtl]{calc.genoprob}} from \code{R/qtl} for inbred strains).
