mergeGenome

Combine genomes of individuals

Description

This function is designed to model the pairing of gametes. The male and female individuals are treated as gametes, so the ploidy of newly created individuals will be the sum of it parents.

Usage

mergeGenome(females, males, crossPlan, simParam = NULL)

Arguments

`females`	an object of `Pop-class` for female parents.
`males`	an object of `Pop-class` for male parents.
`crossPlan`	a matrix with two column representing female and male parents. Either integers for the position in population or character strings for the IDs.
`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)

#Cross individual 1 with individual 10
crossPlan = matrix(c(1,10), nrow=1, ncol=2)
pop2 = mergeGenome(pop, pop, crossPlan, simParam=SP)
