Recent years have seen rapid progress in several areas of both biomedical and anthropological genetics. While genetic analyses have come to play a significant role in biological anthropology, there has been little use of modern methods for linkage mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTLs). It is now
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
We present an overview of pedigree-based variance component linkage methods and discuss their extension to oligogenic inheritance. As an example, oligogenic linkage analyses were performed using the quantitative trait Q4 from the GAW10 simulated data set. A strategy involving sequential oligogenic a
