simGECorMat {sommer}

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)

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.

Value

G the correlation matrix

$G

the correlation matrix
