Assessment of Genetic Diversity of Philippine Rice Cultivars Carrying Good Quality Traits using SSR Markers (2007, background): “Null alleles might decrease the apparent heterozygosity in a population and may result in the deviation of cultivars in a sample from Hardy-Weinberg expectations (Kalinowski and Taper 2006).”
Revising how the computer program cervus accommodates genotyping error increases success in paternity assignment (2007, methodology): “We have described equations for likelihood of paternity that correct an error in the likelihood equations of Marshall et al. (1998). The corrected equations have two important consequences, demonstrated both by simulation and using the reanalysis of Rum red deer. First, they significantly increase t”
