simAutoMarkers function

S3 class simAutoMarkers

An S3 class which contains the simulated dominant marker data for autopolyploids and other data of interest such as segregation proportions as well as parameters set for the generating

Returns

• markers: matrix of 0,1 dominant markers with individuals as cols and rows as markers

• E.segRatio: expected segregation porportions, list with components ratio: segregation proportions, ploidy.level: level of ploidy 4,6,8, ..., ploidy.name: tetraploid, ... , unknown

• ploidy.level: the number of homologous chromosomes, either as numeric (single value) or as a character string containing type tetraploid, hexaploid, octoploid, ...

• n.markers: number of markers (Default: 500)

• n.individuals: number of individuals in the cross (Default: 200)

• dose.proportion: the proportion of markers to be simulated in each dosage class. Note that the exact number will be randomly generated from the multinomial distribution

• true.doses: list containing

  • dosagedoses generated for each marker for simulation
  • table.dosagessummary of no.s in each dosage
  • namesnames for each dosage such as (SD) single dose, (DD) double dose, SDxSD etc

• seg.ratios: segregation proportions as class segRatio

• time.generated: date and time data set generated

• call: function call used to generate data set
