Allelic association and disease mapping [PDF]
Briefings in Bioinformatics, 2001 The application of allelic association to map genes for complex traits, particularly using high-density maps of single nucleotide polymorphisms in candidate regions, is an area of very active research. Here we present some aspects of the methodology and applications to both major gene mapping, which illustrates the effectiveness of the method, and ...
