11.1 Plant-Specific Features
11.1.1 Selfing
11.1.2 Doubled Haploids (DH)

11.2.1 Litter Size Control
pop <- breeding.diploid(
pop,
selection.size = c(10, 20),
litter.size = 8, # 8 piglets per litter
breeding.size = c(160, 160) # 20 litters
)11.2.2 Multiple Parities
# Sows have multiple litters
for (parity in 1:3) {
pop <- breeding.diploid(
pop,
selection.f.gen = 5, # Same females each time
selection.m.gen = 6, # New males
breeding.size = c(100, 100)
)
}11.3 Summary
- Plants: selfing, DH, cloning, no sex
- Animals: litter size, multiple parities
