Difficulties in parentage analysis: the probability that an offspring and parent have the same heterozygous genotype.
Parentage studies often estimate the number of parents contributing to half-sib progeny arrays by counting the number of alleles attributed to unshared parents. This approach is compromised when an offspring has the same heterozygous genotype as the shared parent, for then the contribution of the unshared parent cannot be unambiguously deduced. To determine how often such cases occur, formulae ...
متن کاملEstimation of genetic covariance from joint offspring-parent and sib-sib statistics.
Formulae for calculating the variances and covariances of estimates of genetic variance or covariance from offspring-parent and sib covariance data are presented. The model consists of a one-way classification of families with unequal numbers of offspring, where normally distributed traits x (a parental measure), y and z (offspring measures) are recorded. Procedures for pooling offspring-parent...
متن کاملImputation of parent-offspring trios and their effect on accuracy of genomic prediction using Bayesian method
The objective of this study was to evaluate the imputation accuracy of parent-offspring trios under different scenarios. By using simulated datasets, the performance Bayesian LASSO in genomic prediction was also examined. The genome consisted of 5 chromosomes and each chromosome was set as 1 Morgan length. The number of SNPs per chromosome was 10000. One hundred QTLs were randomly distributed a...
متن کاملNuclear sex-determining genes cause large sex-ratio variation in the apple snail Pomacea canaliculata.
Evolutionary maintenance of genetic sex-ratio variation is enigmatic since genes for biased sex ratios are disadvantageous in finite populations (the "Verner effect"). However, such variation could be maintained if a small number of nuclear sex-determining genes were responsible, although this has not been fully demonstrated experimentally. Brood sex ratios of the freshwater snail Pomacea canal...
متن کاملMaternal and paternal influences on left ventricular mass of offspring.
Significant intrafamilial correlations of left ventricular mass exist in first-degree relatives. However, the specific maternal and paternal influences on left ventricular mass of offspring remain unknown. We therefore evaluated familial aggregation of left ventricular mass by type of familial relation in two European populations. A random sample of 159 nuclear families (250 parents and 321 off...
