_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Convert a standard F2 intercross into a form which allows
     sex-specific maps (class 'f2ss').

_U_s_a_g_e:

     convert2ss(cross)

_A_r_g_u_m_e_n_t_s:

   cross: An object of class 'cross' (must be an intercross). See
          'read.cross' for details.

_V_a_l_u_e:

     The input 'cross' object, but with the genetic map replaced by a
     pair (i.e., male and female) maps, and with the class changed to
     'f2ss'.

_W_a_r_n_i_n_g:

     The use of sex-specific maps for intercrosses is experimental.
