Figure 3

Squared errors of relatedness estimates. Boxplots show squared errors of all 741 pairwise relatedness coefficients R _ij , where i and j are different individuals from generation 0. The boxes indicate the quartiles (1st, 2nd and 3rd) and the 'whiskers' cover the errors whose distance from the box is less than 1.5 times the box size. The outliers are indicated with single points. Methods used: ours (G), ours without linkage model (G(unlinked)), Lynch and Li's (LL), Lynch and Ritland's (LR) and Wang's (W).
