get_pedigree_table: Get the Pedigree Table

Description

Retrieve the pedigree table starting from the current germplasm list and associated pedigree string that provides the parentage through which a cultivar was obtained.

Usage

get_pedigree_table(
  data,
  geno_column = "germplasmName",
  pedigree_column = "pedigree"
)

Value

A data.frame with three columns corresponding to the identifiers for the individual, female parent, and male parent, respectively. The row giving the pedigree of an individual appears before any row where that individual appears as a parent. Founders use NA in the parental columns.

Arguments

data

Germplasm dataset as a data.frame.

geno_column

Name of the column that identifies the genotype/germplasm names.

pedigree_column

Name of the column that identifies the pedigree strings.
