Revising how the computer program cervus accommodates genoty** error increases success in paternity assignment
Genotypes are frequently used to identify parentage. Such analysis is notoriously vulnerable
to genoty** error, and there is ongoing debate regarding how to solve this problem. Many …

ml‐relate: a computer program for maximum likelihood estimation of relatedness and relationship
Genetic data are useful for estimating the genealogical relationship or relatedness between
individuals of unknown ancestry. We present a computer program, ml‐relate that calculates …

Simultaneous estimation of null alleles and inbreeding coefficients
Although microsatellites are a very efficient tool for many population genetics applications,
they may occasionally produce “null” alleles, which, when present in high proportion, may …

Absolute abundance of southern bluefin tuna estimated by close-kin mark-recapture
Southern bluefin tuna is a highly valuable, severely depleted species, whose abundance
and productivity have been difficult to assess with conventional fishery data. Here we use …

An empirical comparison of SNPs and microsatellites for parentage and kinship assignment in a wild sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) population
Because of their high variability, microsatellites are still considered the marker of choice for
studies on parentage and kinship in wild populations. Nevertheless, single nucleotide …

The SSR null allele problem, and its consequences in pedigree reconstruction and population genetic studies in viticulture
Null alleles are alleles that are recessive to codominant markers without any effect on the
phenotype. In SSR assays, there are several reasons for the lack of amplification at a locus …

Invasion of novel habitats uncouples haplo‐diplontic life cycles
Baker's Law predicts uniparental reproduction will facilitate colonization success in novel
habitats. While evidence supports this prediction among colonizing plants and animals, few …
