Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to utilize information on monozygotic twin concordance rates and linkage studies results for common diseases to predict the likely mode of interaction between susceptibility loci. METHODS: We calculated combinations of allele frequency and genotypic relative risk (GRR) that would generate linkage results typically observed in common human diseases. Given these single locus...
