摘要
In this paper we investigate the relationship between heterozygous balance (h) and average peak height ((phi) over bar) in a set of Identifiler (TM) data. The mean of heterozygote balance is unaffected by average peak height but the variance about this mean is much lower at high average peak heights. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
