A unified approach to joint modeling of multiple quantitative and qualitative traits in gene mapping.

Abstract excerpt

Using graph theory, we present a theoretical basis for mapping oligogenes in the joint presence of multiple phenotypic measurements of both quantitative and qualitative types. Various statistical models proposed earlier for several traits of solely single type are special cases of the unified approach given here. Our emphasis is on the generality of the framework, without specifying explicit assumptions about a...
