NEWS file for the pleio package

Changes in version 1.5

• Add new functions for GLMs to extend the same functionality of pleio.q.fit, pleio.q.test, and pleio.q.sequential to functions of the same name, with the q replaced with glm. The pleio.glm.fit function requires the families of the traits (y) and indices of covariates from a user-defined x matrix, and vectors of indices of the x matrix that are to be modeld with each trait (y).

• added vignette for pleio.glm.*, with similar steps as pleio.q.*

• If all traits are significant, return pval=1 and indices of all traits.

• Allow both matrix and data.frame objects for covariates (x.all)

• If all genotypes are the same, return empty objects.

• Allow either matrix or data.frame for traits (fix for v1.6)

Changes in version 1.3

• Initial CRAN release

• Include main functions pleio.q.fit, pleio.q.test and pleio.q.sequential, as explained in the vignette pleioQ
