I'm running the script for simulating recombinations. recHist is the list that saves the crossover locations in the following way:
CHILD
PATERNAL MEIOSIS
2 1 # Haplotype turned 2 in SNP1 (no crossovers)
MATERNAL MEIOSIS
2 1 # Haplotype turned 2 in SNP1 (no crossover)
1 130 # Haplotype turned 1 in SNP1 (crossover 2-1)
2 450 # Haplotype turned 2 in SNP450 (crossover 1-2)
I understand that 1/2 accounts for the grandparental origin (the parent paternal or maternal haplotype during meiosis). I would like to know if the numbers have been chosen randomly or if they refer to a certain origin (for example, 1 is the parent's paternal haplotype and 2 is the parent's maternal haplotype). I have seen contradicting results so I cannot understand the logic.
