\title{Parallelized MQM on multiple phenotypes in a cross object}
\description{
Parallelized QTL analysis using MQM on multiple phenotypes in a cross object (uses SNOW)
}
\usage{
mqmscanall(cross, multicore=TRUE, n.clusters = 1,batchsize=10,cofactors=NULL, \dots)
}
\arguments{
\item{cross}{
An object of class \code{cross}. See \code{\link{read.cross}} for details. % \crossobject
}
\item{multicore}{ Use multiple cores (only if the package SNOW is available, otherwise this setting will be ignored)
}
\item{n.clusters}{ Number of parallel processes to spawn, recommended is setting this lower than the number of cores in the computer
}
\item{batchsize}{ Batch size. The entire set is split in
jobs to reduce memory load per core. Each job contains batchsize number of traits per job.
}
\item{cofactors}{cofactors, only used when scanfunction is mqmscan.
List of cofactors to be analysed in the QTL model. To set cofactors use \code{\link{mqmautocofactors}} or \code{mqmsetcofactors}}. % \mqmcofactors
\item{\dots}{ Parameters passed through to the \code{\link{mqmscan}} function used in
scanning for QTLs
}
}
\details{
Uses \code{mqmscan} to scan for QTL's for each phenotype in the cross object.
It is recomended that the package SNOW is installed before using this function
on large numbers of phenotypes.
}
\value{
Returns a MQMmulti object. This object is a list of \code{\link{scanone}}
objects that can be plotted using \code{plot.scanone(result[[trait]])} or using \code{mqmplot.multitrait(result)}
