Missing phenotype value

[wangmengdie-a]

Hi, I would like to ask what to do if I have missing phenotype values? What does the phenotype file use to represent, is it NA or 0 or is it empty?

By phenotype do you mean the biological data, like weight-at-age or maturity? What are you missing in the FLStock object? It should be left initially as NA, unless the method needs it, like natural mortality.

I have 519 individuals in my input genotype data, but only 471 phenotypes, in this case the phenotypes of the missing individuals in my phenotype data file are represented by NA? Or do I not add them.

My phenotype is intramuscular fat weight

I think you are mistaking FLXSA with another piece of software. This is the repository for the Fishery Library in R (FLR) version of eXtended Survivors Analysis (XSA), a quantitative method for the assessment of fish stocks.

Sincerely thank you！
