rao inverse {hsrecombi}R Documentation

Approximation to inverse of Rao's system of map functions

Description

Calculation of recombination rates from genetic distances given a mixing parameter

Usage

rao.inv(p, x)

Arguments

p

mixing parameter (see details); 0 <= p <= 1

x

vector in Morgan units

Details

Mixing parameter p=0 would match to Morgan, p=0.25 to Carter, p=0.5 to Kosambi and p=1 to Haldane map function.

Value

vector of recombination rates
