Usage

Format
data frame with columns:
column name
type
details
[,1]
parent 1
numeric
copy number of the putative risk allele carried by the first parent (0, 1, 2)
[,2]
parent 2
numeric
copy number of the putative risk allele carried by the other parent (0, 1, 2)
[,3]
child
numeric
copy number of the putative allele carried by the child (0, 1, 2)
[,4]
subpop
numeric
membership for two subpopulations 0, 1
[,5]
attr
numeric
non-genetic attribute value of the child
Note
The data contains 1000 informative case-parent trios,
each of which has at least one heterozygous parent.
The trios were generated, using trioSim
under recessive quadratic gene-environment interaction,
from a stratified population composed of two equal-sized subpopulations.
The two subpopulations have different distributions for the SNP and the non-genetic attribute.
For the SNP, the risk allele frequencies for the first (subpop=0) and
second (subpop=1) subpopulations are 0.1 and 0.9, respectively.
For the non-genetic attribute, the distributions in subpopulations 0 and 1 are Normal
with subpopulation-specific means -0.8 and 0.8, respectively, and common variance 0.36.
