Marker RelatednessThe Marker Relatedness platform assesses different measures of genetic relatedness between pairs of individuals based on their genetic markers. The output of the platform is a genomic relationship matrix with n rows by n columns (n = number of individuals in the data table). You can use the matrix to fit GBLUP models under the Fit Model platform with the Response Screening personality. You can also use the relationship matrix to assess groups of related individuals via principal component analysis and clustering.
