dsmergor

Merges two data-sets in a consensus data-set, sharing order but with separate parameter estimations (data-set specific recombination/breakage/retention ratio).

Synopsis:

The dsmergor command is invoked either as:

Description:

The dsmergor command merges two data-sets of compatible types in a single data-set for which an overall maximum likelihood marker ordering is sought. If more then 2 data-sets need to be merged, this command must be called repeatedly. The merged data-set built uses all the information available in the two data-sets but independent maximum likelihood multipoint parameter estimations are performed on each data-set. This can be used to eg. determine sex-specific racombination ratio.

There is no restriction on the type of data-sets that can be merged using this operator (including merging of radiated hybrid and genetic recombination data).

Arguments:

Returns:

a list summarizing some basic information on the merged data-set: The number of markers is usually strictly less than the number of markers in each of the merged data-set (identical markers are detected by their identical name).

Example:

CG> dsload Data/bc.cg
{1 f2 backcross 20 208 /home/tschiex/Dev/carthagene/doc/user/exemple/Data/b...
CG> dsload Data/rh.cg
{2 haploid RH 53 118 /home/tschiex/Dev/carthagene/doc/user/exemple/Data/rh.cg}
CG> dsmergor 1 2
{3 merged by order 59 326}
