Figure 2

Three-dimensional plot of ln of the likelihood (equation A1 ) along recombination fraction (c) and linkage disequilibrium ( δ ) when testing a family of infinite size for different situations regarding c and δ . The allele frequencies were intermediate at the two loci. A) Situations simulated is c=0.20, δ=0. The maximum value was c=0.20, δ=0. B) Situations simulated is c=0.20, δ=0.20. The maximum value was at c=0.10, δ=0.15. C) Situations simulated is c=0.00, δ=0.00. The maximum value was c=0.00, δ=0.00. D) Situations simulated is c=0.00, δ=0.20. The maximum value was c=0.00, δ=0.20.
