Parentage identification using single nucleotide polymorphism genotypes: application to product tracing.

Abstract excerpt

Identification of relatives using SNP markers has many possible applications. One is as a route to tracing a food product such as a cut of meat back to its source of origin by identifying the parents of the animal from which the product was derived. We develop methods for using SNP markers with maximum likelihood, allowing for the possibility of genotyping errors that would cause false exclusions by simpler...
