Abstract excerpt
Genomewide scans for mapping loci have proved to be extremely powerful and popular. We present a semiparametric method of mapping a quantitative-trait locus (QTL) or QTLs with the use of sib-pair data generated from a two-stage genomic scan. In a two-stage genomic scan, either the entire genome or a large portion of the genome is saturated with low-density markers at the first stage. At the second stage, the...
