The INBREED Procedure

PROC INBREED Statement

PROC INBREED <options>;

The PROC INBREED statement invokes the INBREED procedure. Table 65.1 summarizes the options available in the PROC INBREED statement.

Table 65.1: 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.
