Fig. 1

Mean relatedness estimates in simulated data using different methods. Mean estimates of relatedness for each individual with itself (identity), all pairs of full-sibs, all parent-offspring pairs, and between parents. Each estimation method is shown in a separate panel. Estimates using G₁ with the actual genotype data are shown as ‘Chip’. The other panels show estimates using the different G matrix methods with simulated GBS data. G₄ results are only shown for the identity group (the method is the same as G₅ for relatedness between individuals). The different sets of ‘Chip’ results correspond to the different sets of GBS simulations (at different depths)
