Founder Alleles and Genotypes

A founder allele is a single letter corresponding to a specific founder strain, indicating that the region containing the marker derives from that founder. For example, 'W' might be used to represent the Western Africa founder strain DBVPG6044, or 'S' might be used for the Sake strain Y12).

For a given ploidy N, a founder genotype is the concatenation of the set of N founder alleles. For example, given one founder allele 'W' and another 'S', the founder genotype is 'WS'.
