A more powerful robust test for linkage is developed from the methodology of Haseman and Elston [Behav Genet 2(1):3-19, 19721. This new robust test uses weighted least-squares (WLS) methods to detect linkage between a quantitative trait and a polymorphic marker. For comparison, the characteristics o
We applied sib-pair and association methods to a GAW data set of nuclear families with quantitative traits. Our approaches included 1) preliminary statistical studies including correlations and linear regressions, 2) sib-pair methods, and 3) association studies. We used a single data set to screen f
