Computer program for calculating recombination values from electrophoretic data.
A FORTRAN computer program was developed to calculate recombination values from F2 data. The input to the program is data on codominant alleles in any number of F2 families segregating for any number of loci, the limit being applied by the computer's memory capacity. For each pair of loci, regardless of the number of segregating progenies used, one recombination value is estimated by the method of maximum likelihood and reported with its standard error. In cases in which more than one family is used for the estimation, the chi-square for the homogeneity of the data also is reported.
