BIGpopA 2.0.0

find_parentage() and validate_pedigree() now support any ploidy through a new ploidy argument (default 2).

• find_parentage() and validate_pedigree() now support any ploidy through a new ploidy argument (default 2). Genotypes may be coded as allele-B dosage (0, 1, …, ploidy).
• Even ploidy uses a generalized polysomic gamete-range Mendelian test; it is exact for autopolyploids and conservative for allopolyploids (correct trios are never wrongly flagged).
• Odd ploidy (e.g. triploid), where balanced gametes are undefined, automatically falls back to a model-free opposite-homozygote exclusion evaluated on homozygous-informative markers only.
• Diploid results (ploidy = 2) are unchanged from previous versions.
