Frequency distribution of informative meiosis (in percentage) in the initial set of individual SNP markers (light gray bars) and the final set of HaploBlock (HB) together with remaining individual SNP markers (dark gray bars). The graph highlights the different amount of informative meiosis carried by individual SNPs and the more informative HB markers. SNP markers carried a maximum of 50% of the total information when being completely bi-allelic, as expected, and a maximum of 60% when being tri-allelic in some families when accounting for null-alleles and signal intensity differences. However, the latter is true only for a small proportion (0.1%) of the SNPs, while the majority of SNPs is informative for 20–40% of the individuals. On the contrary, the majority of HB markers (+remaining single SNP) are informative for 40–80% of the individuals across all families and even 8.6% of the HBs is fully informative (100%).
