Description
Tools to calculate stability indices with parametric, non-parametric and probabilistic approaches. The basic data format requirement for ‘toolStability’ is a data frame with 3 columns including numeric trait values, genotype,and environmental labels. Output format of each function is the dataframe with chosen stability index for each genotype. Function “table_stability” offers the summary table of all stability indices in this package. Please refer to the main publication for more detail: Wang, Casadebaig and Chen (2023) <doi: 10.1007/s00122-023-04264-7>. Sample dataset in this package is from: Casadebaig P, Zheng B, Chapman S et al. (2016) <doi: 10.1371/journal.pone.0146385>.
