Adds genomic estimated values to a populations's EBV slot using output from a genomic selection functions. The genomic estimated values can be either estimated breeding values, estimated genetic values, or estimated general combining values.
value: the genomic value to be estimated. Can be either "gv", "bv", "female", or "male".
targetPop: an optional target population that can be used when value is "bv", "female", or "male". When supplied, the allele frequency in the targetPop is used to set these values.
append: should estimated values be appended to existing data in the EBV slot. If TRUE, a new column is added. If FALSE, existing data is replaced with the new estimates.
simParam: an object of SimParam
Returns
Returns an object of Pop-class
