simugeno constructor: simugeno constructor

Description

Constructor for simugeno objects. The function simugeno creates a simugeno object from a tabfreq object. The function as.simugeno is an alias for simugeno function. is.simugeno tests if an object is a valid simugeno object. Note: to get the manpage about simugeno, please type 'class ? simugeno'.

Usage

simugeno(tab,which.loc=NULL,n=1)
as.simugeno(tab,which.loc=NULL,n=1)
is.simugeno(x)

Arguments

tab

a tabfreq object created with constructor tabfreq

which.loc

a character vector giving the chosen loci for the genotypes simulation. The default is set to NULL, which corresponds to all the loci of the tabfreq object given in argument

integer vector giving the number of individuals. If there are several populations, n gives the numbers of individuals to simulate per population. For a single population, default is 1.

an object

Value

For simugeno and as.simugeno, a simugeno object. For is.simugeno, a logical.

encoding

UTF-8

Details

At a given locus, an individual's genotype is simulated by randomly drawing two alleles (with replacement) at their respective allele frequencies in the target population.

Examples

Run this code

data(Tu)
tab<-tabfreq(Tu)
#simulation of 3 individual genotypes for the STR  marker FGA
geno1 <- simugeno(tab,which.loc='FGA', n =100)
geno1@tab.geno
