    An algebraic method simplifies calculating inbreeding [F] and relationship [r] coefficients using family data. This approach is user-friendly and reduces errors in genetic analysis.

    Area of Science:

    • Genetics
    • Biostatistics

    Background:

    • Traditional methods for calculating genetic coefficients often rely on graphic representations.
    • These graphical methods can be complex and prone to errors.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce an algebraic method for computing coefficients of inbreeding [F] and relationship [r].
    • To simplify the organization and computation of family genetic data.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a user-friendly data form for collecting family information.
    • Application of an algebraic approach to replace graphic representations for coefficient calculation.

    Main Results:

    • The algebraic method effectively replaces graphic representations for calculating [F] and [r].

  • The data form facilitates easy and accurate data collection, even by non-experts.
  • The computation process is largely automated, minimizing potential errors.

    • Conclusions:

    • The proposed algebraic method offers a more efficient and accurate approach to genetic data analysis.
    • This method enhances the accessibility of genetic coefficient computation for a wider audience.
