Efficient identification of identical-by-descent status in pedigrees with many untyped individuals

Abstract: Motivation: Inference of identical-by-descent (IBD) probabilities is the key in family-based linkage analysis. Using high-density single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers, one can almost always infer haplotype configurations of each member in a family given all individuals being typed. Consequently, the IBD status can be obtained directly from haplotype configurations. However, in reality, many family members are not typed due to practical reasons. The problem of IBD/haplotype inference is much harder when… Show more

“…In the second part of this subsection, we will present an alternative backup approach for inconsistent data by utilizing posterior decoding. To construct the global IBD in a family, a simple approach is to enumerate all possible inheritance patterns and check their consistency with pairwise IBD, which was implemented in Li et al (2010). However, this algorithm is not efficient.…”

“…nferring genetic relationships from genotype data is a fundamental problem in genetics and has a long history (Elston and Stewart, 1971;Lander and Green, 1987;Abecasis et al, 2002;Fishelson et al, 2005;Li et al, 2010;Sobel and Lange, 1996). Pedigree reconstruction is a hard problem and even constructing sibling relationships is known to be NP-hard (Kirkpatrick et al, 2011).…”

“…Every individual in the graph is associated with a generation g. All the extant individuals are associated with g = 1, and their direct parents are associated with generation g = 2. The height of a pedigree is the biggest g. We define an inheritance path between a child and his ancestor the same as it is defined in Li et al (2010), namely as a path between the two corresponding nodes in the pedigree graph. For example, the inheritance path between 1 and 15 consists of nodes 1-6-11-15.…”
