Use of microsatellite loci to classify individuals by relatedness.

Molecular ecology - 1 Jun 1996

Blouin M S, Parsons M, Lacaille V, Lotz S

Abstract excerpt

This study investigates the use of microsatellite loci for estimating relatedness between individuals in wild, outbred, vertebrate populations. We measured allele frequencies at 20 unlinked, dinucleotide-repeat microsatellite loci in a population of wild mice (Mus musculus), and used these observed frequencies to generate the expected distributions of pairwise relatedness among full sib, half sib, and unrelated...
