Abstract excerpt
Optimal design of quantitative-trait loci (QTL) mapping studies requires a precise understanding of the power of QTL linkage versus QTL association analysis, under a range of different conditions. In this article, we investigate the power of QTL linkage and association analyses for simple random sibship samples, under the variance-components model proposed by Fulker et al. After a brief description of an...
