abstract = {Random intermating of F-2 populations has been suggested for obtaining
precise estimates of recombination frequencies between tightly linked
loci. In a simulation study, sampling effects due to small population
sizes in the intermating generations were found to abolish the
advantages of random intermating that were reported in previous
theoretical Studies considering an infinite Population size. We propose
a mating scheme for intermating with planned crosses that yields more
precise estimates than those under random intermating.},
