In biology, a pedigree is a diagram showing genetic relationships between members of a family. It is used to analyze patterns of inheritance for specific genetic traits. Analyzing a pedigree often allows determination of how a specific trait is passed down among members of a family. This analysis is useful in identifying potential risks for future offspring and the possibility of current members of the family developing a disease in the future. Pedigrees are also used by researchers attempting to identify specific genes causing human genetic disorders. The traditional symbol used for a male in pedigrees is a square shape.
