The additive effects of some markers is NA in the bcsft population #59

Hello, I use the CIM algorithm for localization,my population type if BC4F3,but the dditive effects of some markers is NA,and I can't find the reason, I ask for help to explain it,Thank you!

We need more information: further details on your data, and the code you're using.

jingxianyu commented 7 years ago

This is the code and data I used. data_code.zip

Can you explain in more detail what the problem is?

jingxianyu commented 7 years ago

This is the result of some markers, in the result,the dditive effects of some markers are NA, but some are calculated.I can't find the reason. test.result.zip

The NAs seem to come from cases where the BB genotypes is entirely absent. You might get somewhat better results by using a large value for n.draws when calling sim.geno(), but I think generally you're going to have difficulty getting estimates of the additive and dominance effects given the segregation pattern in the cross.
