Genome-wide association studies typically test large numbers of genetic variants in association with trait values. It is well known that linkage disequilibrium (LD) between nearby markers tends to introduce correlation among association tests. Failure to properly adjust for multiple comparisons can

## Abstract For a dense set of genetic markers such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on high linkage disequilibrium within a small candidate region, a haplotypeβbased approach for testing association between a disease phenotype and the set of markers is attractive in reducing the data comp
## Abstract In complex traits, multiple disease loci presumably interact to produce the disease. For this reason, even with highβresolution single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) marker maps, it has been difficult to map susceptibility loci by conventional locusβbyβlocus methods. Fine mapping strateg
