Task Tutorials
Each tutorial is an end-to-end workflow on the bundled demo dataset. Tasks are organised around what you want to answer, not which package implements it — each task has separate sub-pages for masreml and masbayes so you can pick whichever fits your workflow.
| Task | What it answers | Sub-pages |
|---|---|---|
| Genomic prediction | Which candidates have the highest breeding value? | with masreml · with masbayes |
| GWAS | Which markers carry signal about the trait? | with masreml · with masbayes |
Each task overview explains the task itself — what the goal is, how it differs from the other task, what inputs you need — before sending you to the package-specific tutorial.
Notes on the tutorials
- All code chunks are illustrative (
#| eval: false). The package binaries are not installed during the docs build; copy the snippets into your own R session against your installedmasreml/masbayes. - Both packages share
load_data()and the bundleddemo_data.rds— pick"large"for the standard examples and"small"for quick smoke tests. - Each tutorial covers SNP and microhaplotype workflows side-by-side; the W-matrix construction is the only major divergence point, with downstream API identical.
