This paper considers the random simulation of genotypes from relative pairs using R. After Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium law is introduced systematically, the joint probability distributions of general relative pairs are studie. Then ITO method was discussed in detail. Based on the theo ry described above, computer program for genotypes from relative pairs is written using R. According to these R codes, genotypes from relative pairs can be easily generated randomly.
