Shift starting points in genetic maps
Shift starting points in a genetic map to a set of defined positions
shiftmap(object, offset=0)
object |
An object of class |
offset |
Defines the starting position for each chromosome. This should be a single value (to be used for all chromosomes) or a vector with length equal to the number of chromosomes, defining individual starting positions for each chromosome. For a sex-specific map (as in a 4-way cross), we use the same offset for both the male and female maps. |
If the input is a map
object, a map
object is returned; if
the input is a cross
object, a cross
object is returned.
In either case, the positions of markers are shifted so that the
starting positions are as in offset
.
