Abstract excerpt
Genomewide linkage searches aimed at identifying disease susceptibility loci are generally conducted using 300-400 microsatellite markers. Genotyping bi-allelic single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) provides an alternative strategy. The availability of dense SNP maps coupled with recent technological developments in highly paralleled SNP genotyping makes it practical to now consider the use of these markers for...
