Abstract excerpt
Association mapping studies aim to determine the genetic basis of a trait. A common experimental design uses a sample of unrelated individuals classified into 2 groups, for example cases and controls. If the trait has a complex genetic basis, consisting of many quantitative trait loci (QTLs), each group needs to be large. Each group must be genotyped at marker loci covering the region of interest; for dense...
