Genetic estimates of relatedness: Established practices and new opportunities through low coverage whole genome sequencing

2026-01-23

Abstract excerpt

Identifying close relatives in wild animal populations is fundamental across many research fields. Genetic estimates of relatedness have expanded rapidly in recent decades, based on various types of genetic data. Here, we review their use and outline opportunities for future studies by combining two complementary approaches. First, we systematically reviewed 2,861 articles to assess how genetic relatedness has bee...
