Given a pedigree, the matrix of coefficients of fraternity are returned - the D matrix. Note, no inbreeding must be assumed. Will return the inverse of the D matrix by default, otherwise this operation can be skipped if desired.

pedigree |
A pedigree with columns organized: ID, Dam, Sire |
invertD |
A logical indicating whether or not to invert the D matrix |
Missing parents (e.g., base population) should be denoted by either 'NA' or '0'.
There exists no convenient method of obtaining the inverse of the dominance genetic relatedness matrix (or the D matrix itself) directly from a pedigree (such as for the inverse of A, i.e., Quaas (1995)). Therefore, this function computes the coefficient of fraternity (Lynch and Walsh, 1998) for every individual in the pedigree with a non-zero additive genetic relatedness. Note, the construction of the D matrix is more computationally demanding (in time and space) than is the construction of A.
