Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Parentage assignment is usually based on a limited number of unlinked, independent genomic markers (microsatellites, low-density single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), etc.). Classical methods for parentage assignment are exclusion-based (i.e. based on loci that violate Mendelian inheritance) or likelihood-based, assuming independent inheritance of loci. For true parent-offspring relations,...
