## Abstract A Bayesian modelβbased method for multilocus association analysis of quantitative and qualitative (binary) traits is presented. The method selects a traitβassociated subset of markers among candidates, and is equally applicable for analyzing wide chromosomal segments (genome scans) and
Complete multipoint analysis as implemented by MAPMAKER/SIBS was used to identify the chromosomal regions with the strongest evidence of linkage. Three different quantitative sib-pair methods were compared. For each trait the maximum lod/Z score was used to implicate a chromosomal region. For trait
This paper examines two approaches for the analysis of quantitative traits: (1) association studies and (2) linkage studies. The trait studied was Q1 from simulated Problem 2 data set in Genetic Analysis Workshop 9. Our purpose was to evaluate associations present in the data, to identify nongenetic
