Systematic bias in relatedness estimation is well documented in the literature geared towards diploid organisms, but largely unknown within the malaria community. We characterize systematic bias... to systematic underestimation. However, systematic underestimation can be viewed as population-relatedness calibration, i.e., a way of generating measures of relative relatedness. Systematic underestimation is unavoidable when relatedness is estimated assuming
