The cost of experiments aimed at determining linkage between marker loci and quantitative trait loci (QTL) was investigated as a function of marker spacing and number of individuals scored. It was found that for a variety of experimental designs, fairly wide marker spacings (ca. 50 cM) are optimum o
In genetic analysis it is often of interest to analyze associations between traits of unknown genetic etiology and genetic markers from pedigree data. Statistical methods that assume independence of pedigree members cannot be used because they disregard the statistical dependencies of members in a p
A statistical model that uses an iterative maximum likelihood estimation procedure is proposed for measuring and testing the association between polymorhphic genetic markers and quantitative traits in human pedigrees, after adjusting for covariates such as age and sex. The model allows the quantitat
