The genetic relatedness between individuals because of their recent common ancestry is now routinely estimated from marker genotype data in molecular ecology, evolutionary biology and conservation studies. The estimators developed for this purpose assume that marker allele freque218 in a population are known without errors. Unfortunately, however, these frequencies, upon which both the definition and the...
