randCross {AlphaSimR}

Make random crosses

Description

A wrapper for makeCross that randomly selects parental combinations for all possible combinantions.

Usage

randCross(
  pop,
  nCrosses,
  nProgeny = 1,
  balance = TRUE,
  parents = NULL,
  ignoreSexes = FALSE,
  simParam = NULL
)

Arguments

pop

an object of Pop-class

nCrosses

total number of crosses to make

nProgeny

number of progeny per cross

balance

if using sexes, this option will balance the number of progeny per parent

parents

an optional vector of indices for allowable parents

ignoreSexes

should sexes be ignored

simParam

an object of SimParam

Value

Returns an object of Pop-class

Examples

#Create founder haplotypes
founderPop = quickHaplo(nInd=10, nChr=1, segSites=10)

#Set simulation parameters
SP = SimParam$new(founderPop)


#Create population
pop = newPop(founderPop, simParam=SP)

#Make 10 crosses
pop2 = randCross(pop, 10, simParam=SP)
