Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Given the economic and environmental importance of allopolyploids and other species with highly duplicated genomes, there is a need for methods to distinguish paralogs, i.e. duplicate sequences within a genome, from Mendelian loci, i.e. single copy sequences that pair at meiosis. The ratio of observed to expected heterozygosity is an effective tool for filtering loci but requires genotyping to be...
