Abstract excerpt
Candidate gene association tests are currently performed using several intragenic SNPs simultaneously, by testing SNP haplotype or genotype effects in multifactorial diseases or traits. The number of haplotypes drastically increases with an increase in the number of typed SNPs. As a result, large numbers of haplotypes will introduce large degrees of freedom in haplotype-based tests, and thus limit the power of...
