Computes the standard inbreeding coefficient (F). This is the probability that two alleles on a locus are identical by descent (Falconer and Mackay 1996, Wright 1922), calculated from the genealogical coancestry matrix (Malécot 1948).
F(ped, name_to)
The input dataframe, plus an additional column named "F" with individual inbreeding coefficient values.
A dataframe containing the pedigree. Individual (id), maternal (dam), and paternal (sire) identities are mandatory columns.
A string naming the new output column.
