Inbreeding is often ignored in forensic kinship inference, either because the exact genealogies are unknown, or because current methods are inadequate for inbred pedigrees. In many situations, this may be a reasonable simplification, but in other, it can lead to wrong inference of relatedness between two individuals. In order to quantify the impact of ignoring inbreeding, we simulate marker data for a selection of inbred pedigrees, and subject them to pairwise kinship inference using standard noninbred assumptions.
