Lander–Green algorithm
open-in-new
<p>The Lander–Green algorithm is an algorithm, due to <a href="/facts/Eric_Lander/fDFnnbtM">Eric Lander</a> and Philip Green for computing the <a href="/facts/Likelihood/1L8P4NBX">likelihood</a> of observed genotype data given a <a href="/facts/Pedigree_chart/smI3Q7Bq">pedigree</a>. It is appropriate for relatively small pedigrees and a large number of markers. It is used in the analysis of <a href="/facts/Genetic_linkage/FxPcL2aQ">genetic linkage</a>. </p>
