The resulting matrix has one row and columns corresponding to the specified IDs, with values taken from the phenotype column of the pedigree.

Usage

alignPhenToMatrix(ped, phenotype, keep_ids, personID = "ID")

phenotype

A character string specifying the column name in ped that contains the phenotype values to be aligned.

keep_ids

A vector of IDs for which the phenotype values should be extracted and aligned. These IDs should correspond to the values in the personID of ped.

personID
