FamLink

The portal of FamLink, which can perform statistical calculations based on pedigree structures and account for linkage between pairs of autosomal markers. FamLink provides a versatile toolkit for various analyses, for instance simulate genotype data in order to study the effect of accounting for linkage or not. FamLink is released freely, and published in: Kling D, Egeland T, Tillmar AO (2012) FamLink-a user friendly software for linkage calculations in family genetics. Forensic Sci Int Genet. 6(5):616-620, Mostad, P., Tillmar, A., & Kling, D. (2023). Improved computations for relationship inference using low-coverage sequencing data. BMC bioinformatics24(1), 90. and Kling, D., Tillmar, A., Egeland, T., & Mostad, P. (2015). A general model for likelihood computations of genetic marker data accounting for linkage, linkage disequilibrium, and mutations. International journal of legal medicine129, 943-954.

FamLinkX

The portal of FamLinkX, which is a user-friendly software simultaneously accounting for linkage, linkage disequilibrium (LD) and mutation on X-chromosomal data in relationship testing. FamLinkX can also simulate genotype data in order to study the effect of accounting for linkage and LD or not. FamLinkX is released freely and published in: Kling, D., Tillmar, A., Egeland, T., & Mostad, P. (2015). A general model for likelihood computations of genetic marker data accounting for linkage, linkage disequilibrium, and mutations. International journal of legal medicine129, 943-954. and  Kling, D., Dell’Amico, B., & Tillmar, A. O. (2015). FamLinkX–implementation of a general model for likelihood computations for X-chromosomal marker data. Forensic Science International: Genetics17, 1-7.
