- 1999, Jurg Ott, Analysis of Human Genetic Linkage, →ISBN, page 66:
- Some computer programs furnish p-values rather than maximum lod scores.
- 2001, Anatoly Ruvinsky, J. Sampson, The Genetics of the Dog, →ISBN, page 336:
- Markers were analysed in decreasing order of informativeness; a marker was only added to the map when it could be localized to a unique interval with a lod score of >= 3.0.

- Note that only recombinantion fractions between 0 and 0.5 are meaningful, and that all lod scores are zero at (theta)=0.5 (because they are then measuring the ratio of two identical probabilities, and log10(1)=0).
