Screening a 2 cM genetic map for allelic association: A simulated oligogenic trait
David L. Duffy · Genetic Epidemiology · 1995
In this paper, we explore the use of a variety of familial transmission tests (and case-control analyses) to screen for allelic associations in simulated marker data of a quality (2 cM map) that will feasibly arise from genomic scans within the next 5-10 years. We demonstrate a form of the transmission-disequilibrium test extended to multiallele systems. The methods used were log-linear and related models implemented largely using standard statistical packages.
