RESUMO

The efficiency of single-nucleotide polymorphism haplotype analysis may be increased by DNA pooling, which can dramatically reduce the number of genotyping assays. We develop a method for obtaining maximum likelihood estimates of haplotype frequencies for different pool sizes, assess the accuracy of these estimates, and show that pooling DNA samples is efficient in estimating haplotype frequencies. Although pooling K individuals increases ambiguities, at least for small pool size K and small numbers of loci, the uncertainty of estimation increases
