create_iso_female: Create isofemale

In thijsjanzen/isoSIM: Simulate Linkage Disequilibrium Along Chromosomes in Isofemale Lines

Description

Creates isofemale individuals, given a population

Usage

create_iso_female(source_pop, n = 1,
                  inbreeding_pop_size = 100, run_time = 2000,
                  morgan = 1, seed = 42, progress_bar = TRUE)

Arguments

source_pop	Source population from which isofemales are generated
n	Number of isofemales to be generated
inbreeding_pop_size	Population size of the population used to generate homozygous individuals
run_time	Maximum runtime used for inbreeding
morgan	Size of the chromosome in Morgan (e.g. the number of crossovers during meiosis)
seed	Random number generator seed
progress_bar	Displays a progress_bar if TRUE. Default value is TRUE

Details

To create an isofemale, two individuals are randomly picked from the source population. Using these two individuals, a new population is seeded, of size inbreeding_pop_size. Then, this population is allowed to inbreed until either run_time is reached, or until all individuals are homozygous and genetically identical, whatever happens first.

Value

A list of length n, where each entry is a fully homozygous isofemale.
