Package: acoRn Title: Exclusion-Based Parentage Assignment Using Multilocus Genotype Data Version: 0.1.0 Authors@R: c( person("Nikos", "Pechlivanis", , "npechlv@gmail.com", role = c("aut", "cre"), comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0003-2502-612X")), person("Fotis", "Psomopoulos", , "fpsom@certh.gr", role = c("aut"), comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0002-0222-4273")), person("Aristotelis", "Papageorgiou", , "apapage@mbg.duth.gr", role = c("aut"), comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0001-6657-7820")) ) Description: Exclusion-based parentage assignment is essential for studies in biodiversity conservation and breeding programs - Kang Huang, Rui Mi, Derek W Dunn, Tongcheng Wang, Baoguo Li, (2018), . The tool compares multilocus genotype data of potential parents and offspring, identifying likely parentage relationships while accounting for genotyping errors, missing data, and duplicate genotypes. 'acoRn' includes two algorithms: one generates synthetic genotype data based on user-defined parameters, while the other analyzes existing genotype data to identify parentage patterns. The package is versatile, applicable to diverse organisms, and offers clear visual outputs, making it a valuable resource for researchers.
