Number of sibling pairs with genetic data
100%
Description
Hi I'm trying to find out how many pairs of siblings exist where both individuals have genotype data. Is this (or an approximate) number available anywhere? I have searched through publications and FAQ but have failed to find anything so far.

Dear Gibran,
I'm very sorry for the delay in getting back to you about this, due to holiday commitments over the easter holiday period.
We have about 40 sibling pairs in the sample, both with genetic information (this does not include step brothers and sisters, only natural brothers and sisters).
We hope this helps, best wishes, Victoria.
