Abstract

Model choice problems are looked at in classes of Mendelian inheritance models. Already for small allele numbers the model classes get very extensive. Statistical methods don’t suffice for the decision for an inheritance model. It is necessary to look at parent-child relationships. Effects of a faulty model choice on the data evaluation are discussed.
