3.7 LODSCORE

LODSCORE is a program for maximum likelihood estimation of the recombination rate and the maximum lodscore, from two-locus data. In the present implementation, it is almost identical to ILINK .

Datafile structure

In contrast to ILINK , for which the program-specific parts of the DATAFILE consist of two lines (cf. p.30), LODSCORE has four lines. The first two program specific lines are the same as for ILINK, whereas the last two list the two sets of loci (set 1 on line 3, set 2 on line 4) between which comparisons should be calculated.
