qtl (version 0.85-4)

write.cross.mm: Write data in mapmaker format

Description

Data for a QTL experiment is written to .raw and .prep files, suitable for importing into the mapmaker/exp and mapmaker/qtl programs.

Usage

write.cross.mm(cross, filestem="data", chr, digits=5)

Arguments

cross
An object of class cross. See read.cross for details.
filestem
A character string giving the first part of the output file names (the bit before the dot).
chr
A vector specifying for which chromosomes data should be written.
digits
Number of digits to which phenotype values should be rounded.

Value

  • Data is written to two files, in mapmaker format. Suppose filestem="file". Then "file.raw" will contain the genotype and phenotype data, and "file.prep" will contain the necessary code for defining the chromosome assignments, marker order, and inter-marker distances.
