simGECorMat: Create a GE correlation matrix for simulation purposes.
Description
Makes a simple correlation matrix based on the number of environments and megaenvironments desired.
Usage
simGECorMat(nEnv,nMegaEnv,mu=0.7, v=0.2, mu2=0, v2=0.3)
Value
G the correlation matrix
- $G
 
the correlation matrix
Arguments
  
- nEnv
 
Number of environments to simulate. Needs to be divisible by the nMegaEnv argument.
- nMegaEnv
 
Number of megaenvironments to simulate.
- mu
 
Mean value of the genetic correlation within megaenvironments.
- v
 
variance in the genetic correlation within megaenvironments.
- mu2
 
Mean value of the genetic correlation between megaenvironments.
- v2
 
variance in the genetic correlation between megaenvironments.
Details
Simple simulation of a correlation matrix for environments and megaenvironments.
