EstimateBreed (version 1.0.2)

COI: Inbreeding coefficient

Description

Function for calculating the inbreeding coefficient

Usage

COI(var, VG, VF, generation = "all", verbose = FALSE)

Value

Returns the total, additive and dominance variance values based on the variance components for a given variable.

Arguments

var

Column with the variable name

VG

Column with genotypic variance

VF

Column with phenotypic variance

generation

Parameter to select the generation. Use 'all' to get the parameters for all the generations or 'F3', 'F4', 'F5' and 'F6' for just one of the generations.

verbose

VF <- c(2.5, 3.0, 2.8, 3.2, 2.7)
VG <- c(1.2, 1.5, 1.3, 1.6, 1.4)

#Calculating for all generations
