inbreeding coefficient (F)
the
probability that an individual has a pair of
alleles that are identical by descent from a common ancestor; the proportion of
loci that carry
alleles that are identical by descent from a common ancestor ...

probability of
homozygosity by descent (having common ancestors). The
probability that a
zygote obtains copies of the same ancestral
gene from both its parents because they are related. The
probability of autozygosity.
