[...] à l'inverse des analyses de généalogie òu les marqueurs génétiques doivent avoir un PIC (polymorphism information content) élevé afin d'avoir accès à un nombre suffisant de familles informatives, l'étude des spermatozoïdes n'est pas limitée par le PIC, puisqu'un seul donneur hétérozygote pour les marqueurs étudiés peut fournir des informations sur les phénomènes de recombinaison.
