dsmergen

Merges two data-sets in a consensus data-set, sharing order and distances.

Synopsis:

The dsmergen command is invoked either as:

Description:

The dsmergen command merges two data-sets of compatible types in a single consensus data-set. If more then 2 data-sets need to be merged, this command must be called repeatedly. The consensus data-set built uses all the information available in the two data-sets for eg. maximum likelihood multipoint estimations. Only data-sets of ``compatible'' types can be merged using this merging operator:

Arguments:

Returns:

a list summarizing some basic information on the merged data-set: The number of markers is usually strictly less than the number of markers in each of the merged data-set (identical markers are detected by their identical name).

Example:

CG> dsload Data/bc.cg
{1 f2 backcross 20 208 /homes/thomas/carthagene/test/Data/bc.cg}
CG> dsload Data/bc1.cg
{2 f2 backcross 17 208 /homes/thomas/carthagene/test/Data/bc1.cg}
CG> dsmergen 1 2
{3 merged genetic 20 416}
CG> mrkinfo
