wpeR: Streamlined Analysis of Wild Pedigree Data

Analyzing pedigree data of wild populations. While primarily designed to process outputs from the 'COLONY' (Jones & Wang (2010) <doi:10.1111/j.1755-0998.2009.02787.x>) pedigree reconstruction software, it can also accommodate data from other sources. By linking reconstructed pedigrees with genetic sample metadata, 'wpeR' produces spatial and temporal visualizations as well as tabular summaries that support interpretation of family structures and dynamics. The main goal of the package is to provide a solution for the analysis of complex wild pedigree data and to help the user to gain insights into genetic relationships within wild animal populations.
