PyMSQ is a python package for estimating Mendelian sampling-related quantities. PyMSQ is composed of one module msq for simplicity.
Include the following code in your python file to use its functions:
from PyMSQ import msq
PyMSQ can be installed using pip with the command
pip install PyMSQ
This documentation describes the main functions of the PyMSQ package:
- Derivation of population-specific covariance matrices reflecting within-family linkage disequilibrium
- Estimation of Mendelian sampling variance for traits and aggregate genotype for multiple traits, as well as their covariances
- Derivation of similarity matrices based on Mendelian sampling values between individuals
- Estimation of selection criteria for genetic evaluation of plants and animals
A tutorial on how to use PyMSQ's functions can be found here.
