LDcorSV

Description

The package provides a set of functions which aim is to propose four measures of linkage disequilibrium: - Measure.R2: the usual r2r^2 measure.

- Measure.R2S: r2r^2 corrected by the structure of the sample (rS2r^2_S).

- Measure.R2V: r2r^2 corrected by the relatedness of genotyped individuals (rV2r^2_V).

- Measure.R2VS: r2r^2 corrected by both the relatedness of genotyped individuals and the structure of the sample (rV2Sr^2_VS).

- LD.Measures: this function computes the four measures of linkage disequilibrium (r2r^2, rV2r^2_V, rS2r^2_S and rVS2r^2_{VS}) for a set of loci and gives extra information about them.
