Abstract excerpt
We consider fixed recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived either by selfing or by full-sib mating; when applicable, we also consider intermated recombinant inbreds (IRIs). First, we show that the usual estimate of recombination fraction based on RIL data is biased, and we provide an estimate where the major part of that bias is removed. Second, we derive simple formulas to compute the frequencies of genotypes at...
