Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Using the dataset provided for Genetic Analysis Workshop 14 by the Collaborative Study on the Genetics of Alcoholism, we performed genome-wide linkage analysis of age at onset of alcoholism to compare the utility of microsatellites and single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in genetic linkage study. METHODS: A multipoint nonparametric variance component linkage analysis method was applied to the...
