On the ability of the LR method to detect bias when there is pedigree misspecification and lack of connectedness by Alan M. Pardo, Andres Legarra, Zulma G. Vitezica, Natalia S. Forneris, Daniel O. Maizon, Sebastián Munilla

“…Accuracies and reliabilities showed good agreement between true and LR estimated values for the scenarios evaluated. Conclusions The LR method demonstrated limitations in identifying biases induced by incomplete pedigrees, including scenarios with as much as 40% pedigree errors, or lack of connectedness, but it was effective in assessing dispersion, and population accuracies and reliabilities even in the challenging scenarios addressed.…”
