P-LOCI |
|||||
Program description P-LOCI determines the most efficient set of codominant marker loci for assigning parentage to a given set of potential diploid parents. It was designed primarily to work with microsatellites, but works with any codominant loci in diploid organisms, although the genotyping error simulation feature is available for microsatellite data only. The program can simulate offspring genotype data utilizing mating design, marker linkage, locus-specific frequencies of null alleles and genotyping error. It can then use simulated offspring genotypes or actual genotypic data from subset of offspring with known parentage to rank marker loci by their discriminatory power, and choose the most efficient suite of loci to obtain a user-defined level of assignment success. P-LOCI was written in C++ and developed to run in Microsoft Windows XP.
