A two-parameter (admixture) test (Lod,) for the detection of linkage which allows for heterogeneity is described. Lod score values for this test which lead to comparable type 1 error probabilities as the conventional (homogeneous) single-parameter lod score test (Lod,) are derived. For example, a Lo

Familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FHBL) is an autosomal dominant disorder of lipid metabolism characterized by extremely low plasma levels of apolipoprotein B (apoB), and total-, and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol. Various truncated forms of apoB have been found to cosegregate with the FH
