Medical genetics was revolutionized during the 1980s by the application of genetic map**
to locate the genes responsible for simple Mendelian diseases. Most diseases and traits …

We have briefly reviewed the methods currently available for QTL analysis in segregating
populations and summarized some of the conclusions arising from such analyses in plant …

Efforts to find disease genes using high-density single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)
maps will produce data sets that exceed the limitations of current computational tools. Here …

We have exploited" progeny testing" to map quantitative trait loci (QTL) underlying the
genetic variation of milk production in a selected dairy cattle population. A total of 1,518 …

The joint analysis of genotype marker segregation and phenotypic values of individuals or
lines enables the detection and location of loci affecting quantitative traits (QTL). The …

A new method for segregation and linkage analysis, with pedigree data, is described.
Reversible jump Markov chain Monte Carlo methods are used to implement a sampling …

Current literature indicates that elevated IL‐6 serum levels are associated with diseases,
disability and mortality in the elderly. In this paper, we studied the IL‐6 promoter genetic …

Anthropogenic habitat modification often creates barriers to animal movement, transforming
formerly contiguous habitat into a patchwork of habitat islands with low connectivity …

As genetic marker maps have improved, multipoint linkage analysis has become a crucial
part of all disease map** studies. Paradoxically, multipoint lod scores become …

Detection of genoty** errors and integration of such errors in statistical analysis are
relatively neglected topics, given their importance in gene map**. A few inopportunely …
