If you (or anybody else) would like information on a Macintosh
software package that is able to keep track of the inter-relationships
between animals in a large pedigree, please send me an
E-mail message (LSILVER at Molbiol.princeton.edu) or a FAX
(1-609-258-1703 or 1-609-258-3345). The software package that I have
developed (and is now commercially available at a modest cost)
is specifically designed for the purpose of tracking pedigrees rather
than do linkage analysis (for which there are numerous other packages).
Happy breeding
