Abstract excerpt
Inferences about plant mating systems increasingly use highly informative genetic markers, and investigate finer facets of the mating system. Here, four extensions of models for the estimation mating systems are described. (1) Multiallelic probabilities for the mixed selfing-random mating model are given; these are especially suitable for microsatellites; a generalized Kronecker operator is basis of this formula....
