Abstract excerpt
Errors in genotyping can substantially influence the power to detect linkage using affected sib-pairs, but it is not clear what effect such errors have on quantitative trait analyses. Here we use Monte Carlo simulation to examine the influence of genotyping error on multipoint vs two-point analys...
