Abstract excerpt
We use coalescent methods to investigate the ability of linked neutral "markers" to reveal in simulated population samples the presence of one or more single nucleotide polymorphisms that is contributing to a trait having a complex genetic basis (QTN: quantitative trait nucleotide). Realistic mut...
