Abstract
The problem of computing the minimum number of recombination events for general pedigrees with a small number of sites is investigated. We show that this NP-hard problem can be parametrically reduced to the Bipartization by Edge Removal problem with additional parity constraints. The problem can be solved by an \(O(2^{k}2^{m^{2}}n^{2}m^{3})\) exact algorithm, where n is the number of members, m is the number of sites, and k is the number of recombination events.
