A likelihood ratio approach for identifying three-quarter siblings in genetic databases.

Heredity - 1 Mar 2021

Galván-Femenía Iván, Barceló-Vidal Carles, Sumoy Lauro, Moreno Victor, de Cid Rafael, Graffelman Jan

Abstract excerpt

The detection of family relationships in genetic databases is of interest in various scientific disciplines such as genetic epidemiology, population and conservation genetics, forensic science, and genealogical research. Nowadays, screening genetic databases for related individuals forms an important aspect of standard quality control procedures. Relatedness research is usually based on an allele sharing analysis...
