Abstract excerpt
We consider two methods of estimating phenotype probabilities for a number of standard genetic markers like the ABO, MNSs, and PGM markers. The first method is based on the maximum likelihood estimates of the allele probabilities, and the second (multinomial) method uses the phenotype proportions in the sample. The latter is easy to use, the estimates are always unbiased, and simple formulae for variances are...
