Maximum identity length contrast: a powerful method for susceptibility gene detection in isolated populations.

Genetic epidemiology - 1 Jan 2001

Bourgain C, Génin E, Margaritte-Jeannin P, Clerget-Darpoux F

Abstract excerpt

We report the results of our analysis of the Genetic Analysis Workshop 12 simulated data set. Focusing on the isolated populations, we compare the efficiency of a new method, the maximum identity length contrast statistic (MILC) with the maximum likelihood score (MLS) in a genome screen strategy. MILC is a method based on the contrast of haplotype identity between transmitted and nontransmitted haplotypes in...
