Abstract excerpt
The genomic proportion that two relatives share identically by descent-their genetic relatedness-can vary depending on the history of recombination and segregation in their pedigree. Previous calculations of the variance of genetic relatedness have defined genetic relatedness as the proportion of total genetic map length (cM) shared by relatives, and have neglected crossover interference and sex differences in...
