dEBV_Garrick

Deregression of EBVs following Garrick et al. (2009)
Part of the script were sourced from Badke et al. (2014)

The deregression R-scripts requires the following parameters and information to run sucessfully

1. trait="" +++++ The file containing the EBVs, columns = (ID, EBV, reliability)
2. Pedigree="" +++++ The file containing the Pedigree information, columns = (ID, Sire, Dam)
3. genoIDs="" +++++ The file containing the IDs of the genotyped individuals
4. dataformat="" +++++ Specify if the files are in the directory or it an R-object (options are 'DIR','R-object')
5. h2="" +++++ heritabilty of the traits
6. p.varSNP="" +++++ proportion of genetic variance accounted for by marker genotypes
7. outname="" +++++ Output filename

Example run:
source("dEBV.R")
debv <-dEBV(trait="Pheno_trait.txt", Pedigree="Pedigree_info.txt", genoIDs="IDs_genotyped.txt", dataformat="DIR", h2=0.30, p.varSNP=0.50, outname="dereg_example")
