I have a pedigree data of dogs which contains many loops (may be 200). I am using FASTLINK software to find the recombination rates between markers. I can use MAKEPED to break the loops but I have to assign the loops manually in MAKEPED. Can you please let me know if the newer version of FASTLINK can detect and break the loops automatically ? Thanks in advance, Regards Suvajit Samanta
