genclone-class: GENclone and SNPclone classes

Description

GENclone is an S4 class that extends the '>genind object. SNPclone is an S4 class that extends the '>genlight object. They will have all of the same attributes as their parent classes, but they will contain one extra slot to store extra information about multilocus genotypes.

Arguments

Slots

mlg

a vector representing multilocus genotypes for the data set OR an object of class '>MLG.

Extends

The genclone class extends class "'>genind", directly. The snpclone class extends class "'>genlight", directly.

Details

The genclone and snpclone classes will allow for more optimized methods of clone correction.

Previously for '>genind and '>genlight objects, multilocus genotypes were not retained after a data set was subset by population. The new mlg slot allows us to assign the multilocus genotypes and retain that information no matter how we subset the data set. This new slot can either contain numeric values for multilocus genotypes OR it can contain a special internal '>MLG class that allows for custom multilocus genotype definitions and filtering.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
# genclone objects can be created from genind objects
#
data(partial_clone)
partial_clone
(pc <- as.genclone(partial_clone))

# snpclone objects can be created from genlight objects
#
set.seed(999)
(gl <- glSim(100, 0, n.snp.struc = 1e3, ploidy = 2, parallel = FALSE))
(sc <- as.snpclone(rbind(gl, gl, parallel = FALSE), parallel = FALSE))
# 
# Use mlg.filter to create a distance threshold to define multilocus genotypes.
mlg.filter(sc, threads = 1L) <- 0.25
sc # 82 mlgs

# }
