We present a novel method, IBDLD, for estimating the probability of identity by descent (IBD) for a pair of related individuals at a locus, given dense genotype data and a pedigree of arbitrary size and complexity. IBDLD overcomes the challenges of exact multipoint estimation of IBD in pedigrees of

In some clinical and research settings, it is often necessary to identify the true level of "identity by descent" (IBD) between two individuals. However, as the individuals become more distantly related, it is increasingly difficult to accurately calculate this value. Consequently, we have developed

## Abstract Multipoint linkage analysis gives increased power over single‐point analysis to detect linkage for quantitative trait loci (QTL). Besides increased power, the use of multipoint methods makes it possible to estimate not only the location but also the magnitude of the QTL. Currently, two
