Abstract excerpt
When analyzing the relationship between allelic variability and traits, a potential source of confounding is population admixture. An approach to adjusting for potential confounding due to population admixture when estimating the influence of allelic variability at a candidate gene is presented. The approach involves augmenting linear regression models with additional regressors. Family genotype data are used to...
