Pedigree Selection and Tests of Linkage in a Hutterite Asthma Pedigree
Genetic Epidemiology, 2001We explored methods for kinship and linkage analysis in a Hutterite pedigree comprising 1,544 individuals, 72 of whom were diagnosed with asthma. Subpedigrees were selected by (a) identifying nuclear families containing asthmatics, (b) identifying couples with many asthmatic descendants in an ad hoc manner, and (c) finding the most recent common ...

Mathematical Medicine and Biology, 1988
The problem of drawing a pedigree in a clear and concise manner is discussed and a case is made for the adoption of the marriage node graph as the most appropriate format in which to depict highly looped pedigrees. A method for assigning suitable coordinates to marriages and individuals is then described.

IPED2X: A robust pedigree reconstruction algorithm for complicated pedigrees
Journal of Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, 2014Reconstruction of family trees, or pedigree reconstruction, for a group of individuals is a fundamental problem in genetics. Some recent methods have been developed to reconstruct pedigrees using genotype data only. These methods are accurate and efficient for simple pedigrees which contain only siblings, where two individuals share the same pair of ...
