Abstract excerpt
Accurate and rapid methods for the detection of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) and evaluation of consequent allelic effects are required to implement marker-assisted selection in outbred populations. In this study, we present a simple deterministic method for estimating identity-by-descent (IBD) coefficients in full- and half-sib families that can be used for the detection of QTLs via a variance-component...
