QTLRel (version 0.1)

qtlVar: QTL Variance

Description

Estimate variance in a quantitative trait induced by QTL.

Usage

qtlVar(lrt, prdat, simulation=FALSE, nsim=25)

Arguments

lrt
a data frame (a, d, g, e, ...). For instance, its components should be corresponding to those in an object of scanOne when polygenic variation is accounted for.
prdat
a 3-D array that provides probabilities of genotypes "AA", "AB" and "BB". If prDat is an object of genoProb, then prdat can be prDat$pr.
simulation
whether to use simulations to estimate the variance explained by QTL.
nsim
number of simulations to perform if simulation is TRUE.

Value

  • A vector displaying the estimated variance at each loci.
