In an exponential family of distributions, the problem of testing for homogeneity of a set of parameters against some restricted alternatives is considered. Incorporating Roy's union-intersection (UI) principle, Rao's efficient score test is extended to such restricted alternatives, and is shown to
## Abstract Efficient score tests for a twoโlocus model for quantitative traits are proposed for general pedigrees. Two search strategies, simultaneous search and conditional search, are considered. These tests are attractive alternatives to the likelihood ratio test for their asymptotic equivalenc
