stackTrait: Stacking traits in a dataset

Description

stackTrait creates a dataset stacking traits in the long format to be used with the lmebreed solver for multi-trait models.

Usage

stackTrait(data, traits)

Value

$res

a data frame with traits in long format.

Arguments

data

a data frame with traits in wide format.

traits

variable names corresponding to the traits that should be in the long format.

Examples

data(DT_cpdata)
DT <- DT_cpdata
GT <- GT_cpdata
MP <- MP_cpdata
## create the variance-covariance matrix
A <- A.mat(GT) # additive relationship matrix
A <- A + diag(1e-4, ncol(A), ncol(A))
## look at the data and fit the model
head(DT)
DT2 <- stackTrait(data=DT, traits = c("Yield","color"))
head(DT2$long)
