A likelihood approach to populations samples of microsatellite alleles.

Genetics - 1 Jun 1997

Nielsen R

Abstract excerpt

This paper presents a likelihood approach to population samples of microsatellite alleles. A Markov chain recursion method previously published by GRIFFITHS and TAVARE is applied to estimate the likelihood function under different models of microsatellite evolution. The method presented can be applied to estimate a fundamental population genetics parameter theta as well as parameters of the mutational model. The...
