allelefreqs function

Estimates allele frequencies

Estimates allele frequencies from a binary matrix

allelefreqs(dat)

Arguments

• dat: A binary matrix, rows are haplotypes and columns are binary markers

Returns

A list containing: - freqs: Vector of allele "0" frequencies

• all.polym: If TRUE, all loci are polymorphic

• non.polym: Vector of non-polymorphic loci, if any
