- calculates the covariance or inbreeding coefficients for a pedigree
- handles very large populations
- has two modes of operation:
- Mode 1: carries out analysis on the assumption that all the individuals belong to the same generation
- Mode 2: divides the population
into nonoverlapping generations and analyzes each generation separately, assuming that the
parents of individuals in the current generation are defined in the previous generation.
- computes averages of the covariance or inbreeding coefficients within sex
categories if the sex of individuals is known
- obtain separate analyses on observations in groups
- uses ODS to create a SAS data set corresponding to any table
