Friends and family: A software program for identification of unrelated individuals from molecular marker data.

Molecular ecology resources - 1 Nov 2017

de Jager Deon, Swarts Petrus, Harper Cindy, Bloomer Paulette

Abstract excerpt

The identification of related and unrelated individuals from molecular marker data is often difficult, particularly when no pedigree information is available and the data set is large. High levels of relatedness or inbreeding can influence genotype frequencies and thus genetic marker evaluation, as well as the accurate inference of hidden genetic structure. Identification of related and unrelated individuals is...
