Figure 10

All genotypes swapped between two unrelated individuals. (A) Genotype dataset corrupted to swap two samples from generation 1 (175277 female/175276 male). Both samples report multiple inheritance inconsistencies of all three types: nil from sire, nil from dam and novel alleles. Generation 2 offspring from these individuals report novel alleles and failure to inherit from their misidentified parent. In (B) data 50% of the genotype data has been removed from generation 1 individuals (blue borders) causing inference by the genetic algorithm. This has the effect of propagating the reporting of errors through related individuals, for example to offspring of 175278, a sister of the mis-sampled 175277, through inferences on their shared mating partner, the ungenotyped male 175272.
