Sentence examples for the relationship coefficient from inspiring English sources
As per Suresh et al. (2011), if the relationship coefficient between the considering metals is higher, metals have a common source of origin with mutual dependence and similar behavior during transport.
Due to its low variance, we chose the relationship coefficient r from Li et al. [26], which is corrected for sample size, bounded by [−1; +1].
The complex family structure is accounted for in the genetic analysis via the polygenic variance component that uses the relationship coefficient between pairs of individuals as a parameter [83].
Within the population of base animals, the relationship coefficient is γ and the inbreeding coefficient is γ / 2.
The probability of IBD is closely related to the relationship coefficient (r) calculated from pedigrees for the estimation of additive variance.
The relationship coefficient between male k and female l is: r kl = m kj m lj / 4 p j q j 2 p j q j.
In order to assess the reliability of the results obtained with this coefficient, we also performed the spatial autocorrelation analyses using three other estimators that are regularly used in similar studies: the relationship coefficients of Queller and Goodnight [27], Lynch and Ritland [28] and Moran's I statistic [29].
Precision was measured by the mean squared error (MSE) of the relationship coefficients in predicting the true IBD relationships, relative to MSE obtained from using pedigree only.
The relationship coefficients were computed based on conditional QTL allelic transmission probabilities, which were inferred from the marker allelic transmission probabilities.
Because the relationship coefficients are expressed relative to the current population, the mean of the off-diagonal elements (left panel) is −(1 + f)/ n, which is essentially 0 for populations with hundreds of lines or more.
Therefore, to adjust for population stratification we used PLINK to estimate the coefficients of genetic relationship based on autosomal marker genotypes in each HapMap population independently and then merged all four population genetic relationship matrices by setting the relationship coefficients between individuals from different populations to be zero.
