Irrespectively of polymorphism type, computed based on the Combined analysis strategy.
Simulating the number of alleles that would have been identified using traditional capillary electrophoresis, computed based on the FullLength analysis strategy and accounting for allele size only on the same locus as the Combined approach.
Total number of alleles (and number of loci in brackets) for each polymorphism type.
