This package contains pedigree processing and analyzing functions, including functions for checking, extraction and renumbering the pedigree, making the additive and dominance pedigree relationship matrices and their inverses, in matrix and tabular formats, calculating inbreeding coefficients (Meuwissen & Luo, 1992), as well as functions related to genetic groups.
First, it is recommended to check the pedigree
data.frame
with the pedcheck
function.
Pedigree relationship matrix and its inverse are fundamentals in the
conventional and modern animal breeding. The concept of genetic groups
stems from the fact that not all the unknown parents are of the same
genetic level. The genetic group contribution matrix
(Q) is required to weight and add genetic group effects
(ĝ) to the genetic merit of animals
(û), which is equal to Qĝ +
û (Quaas,
1988). Calculating Q is computationally
challenging, and for large pedigree, large RAM and long computational
time is required. Therefore, the functions qmatL
and its
parallel version, qmatXL
are introduced. Overlap between
sire and dam genetic groups is supported.
