Abstract excerpt
This article investigates the construction of linkage maps by means of the reconstruction of hidden inheritance vectors. An inheritance vector provides a description of the origin of marker alleles in an individual in terms of a binary code indicating the grandparental origin of the alleles. The practical application that is considered is the full-sib family of a diploid outbreeding species. Essentially, map...
