A note on the rationale for estimating genealogical coancestry from molecular markers.

Genetics, selection, evolution : GSE - 12 Jul 2011

Toro Miguel Angel, García-Cortés Luis Alberto, Legarra Andrés

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Genetic relatedness or similarity between individuals is a key concept in population, quantitative and conservation genetics. When the pedigree of a population is available and assuming a founder population from which the genealogical records start, genetic relatedness between individuals can be estimated by the coancestry coefficient. If pedigree data is lacking or incomplete, estimation of the...
