h2_samp_var: Calculates expected sampling variance of a given $h^2$ from the A matrix of a pedigree, based on the method of Visscher and Goddard 2015 Genetics

Description

Calculates expected sampling variance of a given $h^2$ from the A matrix of a pedigree, based on the method of Visscher and Goddard 2015 Genetics

Usage

h2_samp_var(Ped, h2 = 0.3, plot = FALSE)

Value

Returns a vector of sampling variances for each given h2.

Arguments

Ped

A pedigree

h2

vector of heritabilities for which the sampling variance is calculated.

plot

logical. If TRUE, a plot of the sampling variance as a function of h2 is produced (only if length(h2)>1).

Examples

# \donttest{
data(gryphons)
pedigree <- gryphons[, 1:3]

h2_samp_var(pedigree,h2=0.3)
# }
