Pedigree InformationΒΆ
Flapjack now supports the following pedigree extensions to its genotype file option, which can be imported by including the appropriate headers at the top of a genotype file.
Note
All header lines to Flapjack files begin with #
The headers should be a tab-separated list of columns, in the following format (# fjPedigree
is only space separated):
# fjPedigree <progeny> <parent-type> <list of parents of this type>
Parent type can currently be one of:
RP (recurrent parent)
DP (donor parent)
N/A (not applicable)
The <progeny>
field can either be a specific progeny name, or the special case of *, meaning that this entry applies to all lines in the dataset (a line will never be assigned itself as a parent though). Multiple instances of the same progeny or parent (by name) will be mapped to all instances of that line name.
For example:
# fjFile = GENOTYPE
# fjPedigree * RP rpParent
# fjPedigree line1 DP dpParent1 dpParent2 dpParent3
# fjPedigree line2 DP dpParent1
# fjPedigree line3 N/A rndParent1 rndParent2
# fjPedigree line4 N/A rndParent1 rndParent2
mrkr1 mrkr2 mrkr3
line1 A/T C T
line2 G G/A C
line3 G G/A A
line4 A/T C T
rpParent A/T C T
etc...
