Confidence limits for estimates of gene linkage based on analysis of recombinant inbred strains

Silver, Jonathan·1985·Journal of Heredity

Abstract

Recombinant inbred (RI) strains are extremely useful for genetic mapping. This paper presents a simple method for determining confidence intervals for linkage estimates based on analysis of RI strains. The results show that such confidence intervals are usually large with the currently available numbers of RI strains. Therefore, map positions based only on analysis of RI strains should be interpreted with caution. To facilitate interpretation of linkage data derived from RI strains, a table is presented giving the 95 percent and 99 percent confidence intervals for all possible linkages detected with up to 45 RI strains.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
