How many SNPs are enough?

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2010

Smouse Peter E

Abstract excerpt

Since the days of allozyme analysis, we have been enamored with the idea that if we just had enough polymorphic mendelian loci, we could gauge the inbreeding level of individuals by measuring heterozygosity and simultaneously measure the degree of genetic relatedness between pairs of individuals. Given Mendel's Laws, we have always known that we would need numerous independently segregating loci to achieve any...
