Abstract:

AllocateMate is a R package comprised of two primary functions: allocate.mate.ped and allocate.mate.H. These functions allocate parents to mating pairs based on genetic relationships provided by the user in the form a pedigree file or a relationship matrix (allocate.mate.H). Mating lists are generated (i)that minimise the average Wright’s inbreeding coefficient (F) of offspring, by minimising the average coefficient of coancestry between parents in mating pairs; or (ii) according to assortative mating principles, by maximising the standard deviation of the parental mean EBVs of mating pairs.
