The estimation of genetic relationships using molecular markers and their efficiency in estimating heritability in natural populations.

Philosophical transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B, Biological sciences - 29 Jul 2005

Thomas Stuart C

Abstract excerpt

Molecular marker data collected from natural populations allows information on genetic relationships to be established without referencing an exact pedigree. Numerous methods have been developed to exploit the marker data. These fall into two main categories: method of moment estimators and likelihood estimators. Method of moment estimators are essentially unbiased, but utilise weighting schemes that are only...
