The INBREED Procedure

PROC INBREED Statement

  • PROC INBREED <options>;

The PROC INBREED statement invokes the INBREED procedure. Table 64.1 summarizes the options available in the PROC INBREED statement.

Table 64.1: PROC INBREED Statement Options

Option

Description

Specify Data Sets

DATA=

Names the SAS data set

OUTCOV=

Names an output data set to contain the inbreeding coefficients

Control Type of Coefficient

COVAR

Specifies that all coefficients output consist of covariance coefficients

SELFDIAG

Includes an individual’s self-mating kinship coefficient

Control Displayed Tables

AVERAGE

Produces a table of averages of coefficients

IND

Displays the individuals’ inbreeding coefficients

MATRIX

Displays the inbreeding coefficient matrix

Specify Default Covariance Value

INIT=

Specifies the covariance value

Suppress Output

INDL

Displays individuals’ coefficients for only the last generation

MATRIXL

Displays coefficients for only the last generation

NOPRINT

Suppresses the display of all output


AVERAGE
A

produces a table of averages of coefficients for each pedigree of offspring. The AVERAGE option is used together with the GENDER statement to average the inbreeding/covariance coefficients within sex categories.

COVAR
C

specifies that all coefficients output consist of covariance coefficients rather than inbreeding coefficients.

DATA= SAS-data-set

names the SAS data set to be used by PROC INBREED . If you omit the DATA= option, the most recently created SAS data set is used.

IND
I

displays the individuals’ inbreeding coefficients (diagonal of the inbreeding coefficients matrix) for each pedigree of offspring.

If you also specify the COVAR option, the individuals’ covariance coefficients (diagonal of the covariance coefficients matrix) are displayed.

INDL

displays individuals’ coefficients for only the last generation of a multiparous population.

INIT= cov

specifies the covariance value cov if any of the parents are unknown; a value of 0 is assumed if you do not specify the INIT= option.

MATRIX
M

displays the inbreeding coefficient matrix for each pedigree of offspring.

If you also specify the COVAR option, the covariance matrices are displayed instead of inbreeding coefficients matrices.

MATRIXL

displays coefficients for only the last generation of a multiparous population.

NOPRINT

suppresses the display of all output. Note that this option temporarily disables the Output Delivery System (ODS). For more information on ODS, see Chapter 20: Using the Output Delivery System.

OUTCOV= SAS-data-set

names an output data set to contain the inbreeding coefficients. When the COVAR option is also specified, covariance estimates are output to the OUTCOV= data set instead of inbreeding coefficients.

SELFDIAG

includes an individual’s self-mating kinship coefficient instead of the individual’s inbreeding coefficient on the diagonal of the matrix in the OUTCOV= data set when the COVAR option is not specified.
