solarKinship2

A data frame that containts both phenotype and pedigree data.
To be passed to <code>df2solar</code> function.

(optional) A character with path to a directory, where SOLAR files to be created.
If this argument is missing, a temporary folder is created and further removed, when the job is done.
To be passed to <code>df2solar</code> function.

Additional arguments to be passed to <code>df2solar</code>.


The function runs SOLAR to evaluate the double kinship matirx of the given data.


SOLAR is the standard software program to perform linkage and
association mappings of the quantitative trait loci (QTLs) in pedigrees of
arbitrary size and complexity. This package allows the user to exploit the
variance component methods implemented in SOLAR. It automates such routine
operations as formatting pedigree and phenotype data. It also parses the model
output and contains summary and plotting functions for exploration of the
results. In addition, solarius enables parallel computing of the linkage and
association analyses, that makes the calculation of genome-wide scans more
efficient. See <http://solar.txbiomedgenetics.org/> for more information about
SOLAR.
