maxdip – Estimating Cross-over and Gene Conversion Rates from Diploid unphased Polymorphism data

maxdip

:: DESCRIPTION

maxdip is a software to estimate rho (4Nr) and gene conversion rates  using random samples with two-site  unphased diploid information. The estimate is obtained by a maximum composite likelihood method based on pairs of sites,
