R package for plant breeding

Hi there, I am a new user of R software and this community. I have a problem, I don't find R package for plant breeding data ( Diallel, Line Tester, 3-way crosses). I have been advised to ask for advice by Dr Kaitlyn Horwitz.

It looks like there's a package called plantbreeding:

Thanks mara
I have downloaded plantbreeding package many times, but always I get the following warning: It is not available. I tried installed it on the old version of R but I got the same warning. I used R-Forage. I am completely lost.

Also I get this warning: In install.packages("plantbreeding", repos = "http://R-Forge.R-project.org") :
installation of package ‘plantbreeding’ had non-zero exit status
What is this mean?

You have to paste the whole error message in order for us been able to check what is going on, but most likely you are missing reshape dependency, try with

install.packages("reshape")
install.packages("plantbreeding", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org")

install.packages("reshape")
Installing package into ‘C:/Users/x9-999/Documents/R/win-library/3.5’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning: unable to access index for repository http://cran.um.ac.ir/src/contrib:

Warning: unable to access index for repository http://cran.um.ac.ir/bin/windows/contrib/3.5:

package ‘reshape’ is not available (for R version 3.5.2)

Use rstudio's CRAN repository instead

install.packages('reshape', repos='http://cran.rstudio.com/')

If that doesn't solve your issue check if your internet connection is behind a proxy server or a firewall (that is often the case when you are at work or school)

Thanks. I will follow all of your instructions. Maybe the problem with my network.

Its downloaded, Thanks andresrcs , but I got this message:
library(plantbreeding)
Loading required package: reshape
Loading required package: plyr

Attaching package: ‘plyr’

The following objects are masked from ‘package:reshape’:

rename, round_any

What is that mean?

Great, thorough answer to that in this thread:

Thanks mara. I will see it.
