Abstract
The method of calculation of probabilities for [human] genetic counselling can be generalized to give the relative probabilities for any single individual in any pedigree for any Mendelian condition. The calculations only require matrix multiplications (of one kind or another), and the expression can be written down and evaluated directly, manually or by computer.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
