SimParam_setRecRatio: Set gender specific recombination

Description

Defines a gender specific recombination ratio. The ratio is defined as the amount of recombination in females relative to male. Thus, a value of 1 (default) specifies equal recombination rates in both males and females. A value of 2 specifies twice as much recombination in females and a value of 0.5 specifies half as much recombination in females.

Arguments

ratio

any value greater than 0

force

should the check for a running simulation be ignored. Only set to TRUE if you know what you are doing.

Usage

SP$setRecRatio(ratio, force = FALSE)

Examples

# NOT RUN {
#Create founder haplotypes
founderPop = quickHaplo(nInd=10, nChr=1, segSites=10)

#Set simulation parameters
SP = SimParam$new(founderPop)
SP$setRecRatio(2) #Twice as much recombination in females

# }
