We compare the statistical power of the transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) with that of two likelihood-based linkage tests, the classical LOD score and a modified LOD score in which a linkage disequilibrium (LD) parameter is incorporated into the likelihood (LD-LOD). We hypothesize that, when LD is present, the LD-LOD will have the greatest power of the three tests because the TDT breaks a multiplex pedigree...
