A simple and rapid method for calculating identity-by-descent matrices using multiple markers

<p>Abstract</p> <p>A fast, partly recursive deterministic method for calculating Identity-by-Descent (IBD) probabilities was developed with the objective of using IBD in Quantitative Trait Locus (QTL) mapping. The method combined a recursive method for a single marker locus with a...
