In linkage analysis of recessive traits, parental relationship is important. For the case that it is unknown, the question is investigated as to whether estimating parental relationship and using the estimated relationship in linkage analysis is beneficial. Results show that estimating parental rela

This study examines the issue of false positives in genomic scans for detecting complex trait loci using sibpair linkage methods and investigates the trade-off between the rate of false positives and the rate of false negatives. It highlights the tremendous cost in terms of power brought about by an

We compared several strategies for identifying and estimating effects from a genetic locus in the etiology of a complex trait. For our analyses we used data from simulated trait 1 and chromosome 5. Results from analysis of the first 20 replicates showed that a components of variance test provided co

The growing interest in detection of genetic effects for complex traits along with molecular revolution has stimulated many linkage studies. Multiple replication studies tend to produce different results. In such situations, rigorous meta-analysis methods can be useful for assessing the overall evid

We used descriptive analysis to investigate the relationship between affection status and five quantitative traits (Q1-Q5) in Problem 2A and results suggested the five quantitative traits fall into two groups. The first group comprised three strongly correlated traits, Q1-Q3, which underlie affectio
