Abstract excerpt
We present an efficient method to join genetic maps derived from different crosses, which is especially appropriate for dominant markers. In contrast to the "JoinMap" algorithm, which estimates information about recombination in a given cross from the LOD values and then combines estimates among crosses assuming a binomial sampling distribution, we construct a joint likelihood function that combines information...
