Abstract excerpt
Genomewide linkage scans have traditionally employed panels of microsatellite markers spaced at intervals of approximately 10 cM across the genome. However, there is a growing realization that a map of closely spaced single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) may offer equal or superior power to detect linkage, compared with low-density microsatellite maps. We performed a series of simulations to calculate the...
