✦ Synopsis

The transmissioddisequilibrium test (TDT) is extended in two ways for a multiallelic marker: (1) to compare transmitted and nontransmitted alleles from a single heterozygous parent and (2) to compare genotypes formed by the two transmitted alleles and genotypes formed by the two nontransmitted alleles using the information on both parents, heterozygous or not, simultaneously.

Due in part to an influential paper by Risch and Merikangas [(1996) Science 273:1516-1517], which suggested that disequilibrium tests would have greater power to detect genes of small effect than would linkage tests, interest in the use of the Transmission Disequilibrium Test (TDT) as an analysis to

Transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) is a nuclear family-based analysis that can test linkage in the presence of association. It has gained extensive attention in theoretical investigation and in practical application; in both cases, the accuracy and generality of the power computation of the TDT

Several versions of the transmission/disequilibrium test (TDT) were applied to the two candidate genes ACTHR and Golf for bipolar illness. Analyses were carried out separately for paternal and maternal transmission. Evidence for linkage and association was found for ACTHR for paternal transmission i
